Obverse

On the obverse of the 2024 Colorized EC8 Anguilla Regatta Silver Coin is the official seal of the ECCB. Anguilla, a small British Overseas Territory in the northeastern Caribbean, is known for its white sand beaches and boutique resorts. Although it covers only 35 square miles, the island is home to around 15,000 people who have built a tourism economy that remains closely tied to Caribbean customs and culture. Inscriptions read EASTERN CARIBBEAN CENTRAL BANK, ECCB, 1 OZ .999 SILVER, and TWO DOLLARS.

Reverse

The reverse of the 2024 Colorized EC8 Regatta 1 oz Silver Coin shows a sailboat in full color cruising through Anguillas calm, blue waters. Modern regattas became more widespread in the mid-1900s, as newly independent islands embraced their seafaring heritage and hosted local festivals centered around sailing. The inscriptions here read ANGUILLA and 2024.

History

Regattas in the Caribbean began as practical demonstrations of sailing skills. Over time, these races evolved into scheduled sporting events supported by colonial leaders and local elites, often aligned with holidays or commemorative dates.
