The Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (“CIMA” or “the Authority”), in collaboration with Scottsdale Mint, is proud to unveil the 2024 Cayman Islands Sea Life Gold and Silver Collector’s Coin Series. This collection showcases three stunning marine creatures: the fierce Blue Marlin, the beloved Loggerhead Turtle, and the elegant Stingray. The coins are available in 1 oz and 1/10 oz .9999 fine gold and 1 oz .999 fine silver.

Building on the success of the widely popular Cayman Islands Blue Marlin Coin Program, which CIMA launched with Scottsdale Mint in 2017, the Sea Life Series retains the Blue Marlin while introducing two new designs: the Loggerhead Turtle and the Stingray. All three designs feature the Cayman Islands’ Coat of Arms which is depicted on the obverse of each coin.

"The Cayman Islands Monetary Authority is proud to launch this beautiful collector series produced by Scottsdale Mint. These sea life coins recognise the significance and beauty of the marine life that attracts many visitors to the Cayman Islands," said CIMA Acting Managing Director, Mr. Patrick Bodden.

Mr. Josh Phair, Founder of Scottsdale Mint, expressed his enthusiasm: "Scottsdale Mint is incredibly honoured to partner once again with the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority to draw attention to the richness and beauty of the Cayman Islands through precious metals."

All three silver bullion coins in the 2024 collection – Blue Marlin, Loggerhead Turtle, and Stingray – are now available for purchase from CIMA. Supplies are limited. For more information or to purchase these coins, please contact CIMA’s Currency Division at the Government Administration Building, 133 Elgin Avenue, between 9:00 AM and 2:00 PM, by phone at (345) 244-1596, or via email at contactcurrency@cima.ky.
