The obverse of the 2024 1 oz EC8 Gold Flamingo Coin shows the logo of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank. The design features the letters ECCB surrounded by large laurel branches. The ECCB has served as the central monetary authority for eight member countries in the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union since 1983. Headquartered in St. Kitts and Nevis, the bank manages the Eastern Caribbean dollar, which has maintained a fixed exchange rate of EC$2.70 to US$1 since 1976.

On the reverse of 2024 EC8 Gold St. Lucia Flamingo Coins, two flamingos are shown facing each other with their long necks raised in a graceful pose. These birds, called Caribbean flamingos (Phoenicopterus ruber), are recognized for their bright pink feathers and curved bills. They can grow up to five feet tall and get their pink color from the pigments in the shrimp, algae, and other small aquatic life they eat.

St. Lucia is more than its scenic beaches and upscale resorts. The island also has dense rainforests, volcanic springs, and thriving marine life. Its economy depends on tourism as well as exports like bananas and cocoa. The people of St. Lucia—known as Saint Lucians—take pride in their welcoming nature and cultural roots that trace back to the Arawak and Carib peoples.

These 2024 1 oz EC8 Gold St. Lucia Flamingo Coins come in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Each coin is sealed in a CertiLock card, providing both secure storage and easy authentication. While the same design is used across the 2024 release, you may also find other versions available, such as colorized or proof editions.
