Sailing regattas in the Caribbean started as practical exercises in seafaring and later grew into organized competitions. Over time, these events became part of local celebrations, often tied to important dates or religious holidays during the colonial era.

Each 2024 1 oz Colorized EC8 Silver Anguilla Regatta Coin is in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and ships in a specially themed display box. This coin is an official release in the EC8 Series, which is issued by the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank and represents eight island nations in the region.

The obverse of the 2024 Colorized Silver Anguilla Regatta Coin displays the seal of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank. Anguilla, a British Overseas Territory located in the northeastern Caribbean, is known for its sandy beaches and luxury resorts. Although it covers just 35 square miles, the island supports a lively community of around 15,000 people and a strong tourism industry that honors its Caribbean roots.

On the reverse, the 2024 1 oz Colorized EC8 Silver Regatta Coin shows a full-color image of a sailboat gliding through Anguilla’s clear waters. In the mid-20th century, sailing events across the Caribbean gained new life as independent island nations began celebrating their maritime heritage with annual festivals and races.
