Actually the second one ranks as one of my favorite coins in so much as its possible to be outside of US 2 Cents.

I don't think there's any valid reason the Coin Islands (Niue, Palau, Tuvalu, Tokelau and all the rest of those S Pacific microdots) should have a monopoly on
grinding out coins commemorating everything from the toothpick to Lassie's birthday.

I tip my hat to the Organization of East Caribbean States and I wish them the best with their coin-peddling efforts. I only hope they don't start cranking out a
few million more painted, rhinestone-encrusted pieces of overpriced grandma bait.

Gotta admit, though... I'm with Bekiz on these. I doubt I'll ever build up a serious collection of East Caribbean States coins.

Edit: Are those flowers on the second coin opium poppies?

Reverse is nice on both those... Really not fond of the look of the Queen though...

Since when did the Queen has a set of gills on her neck? I guess they are suppose to be wrinkles etc but they sure do look like gills.
