| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a large central guilloche medallion, within which the issuer name THE BRITISH CARIBBEAN TERRITORIES and EASTERN GROUP are inscribed. Surrounding the medallion are the coats of arms of the member territories: Leeward Islands and British Guiana at left, Barbados at top centre, and Windward Islands and Trinidad & Tobago at right, each within ornate cartouches. Intricate lathe-work underprint fills the entire field, and the denomination TWENTY DOLLARS and $20 appear in bold letterpress above the central vignette. |
