Another cool looking coin from the Scottsdale Mint featuring a Caribbean Reef Octopus on the reverse side. The reverse is very shiny and was difficult to get a good photo of. The obverse has a profile view of Queen Elizabeth II with laurels of evergreen shrubs circling her.

The 2020 Grenada octopus is one of four coins minted for the EC8 series that started in 2018. The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank is the issuer of the Eastern Caribbean dollar for the EC8 that consists of Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Commonwealth of Dominica, Grenada, Montserrat, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.

Love the octopus! 😍 Capsules make it all that more difficult to reduce glare. Photo came out nice though! Enjoy the silver!

The capsules do make it a little harder to take a good picture but I don't like to take them out unless I have to, you never know when I will drop it of what ever. lol
