| 裏面の説明 | A highly detailed, naturalistic rendering of the Mountain Chicken (Leptodactylus fallax), one of the world's largest frogs and the national animal of Dominica, depicted in three-quarter view facing right and occupying the majority of the field. The amphibian is shown resting on rocky ground amid foliage, with its powerful hind legs and webbed feet rendered in fine relief. Above, the country name DOMINICA appears in flowing cursive script, followed by the date 2022 in upright numerals. Along the lower periphery, the inscription "THE MOUNTAIN CHICKEN" appears in quotation marks in small capital lettering. |

The mountain chicken is neither chicken nor mountain-dweller in any meaningful sense — it's a giant frog, Leptodactylus fallax, named for its reportedly poultry-like flavor and hunted nearly to extinction across Dominica and Montserrat as a result. By 2022, wild population estimates had collapsed to the low hundreds, driven by the chytrid fungal pandemic that devastated amphibian species globally from the 1990s onward. The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank's decision to feature it reflects genuine regional conservation alarm, not novelty marketing.
