View Larger Map

The East Caribbean States is a group of islands stretching from Puerto Rico southward toward Venezuela. Their tropical climate makes many of them favorite tourist destinations.




The islands comprising the East Caribbean States formed a currency issuing authority in 1950. Some members have issued notes identified by island name, such as Barbados. The notes listed below used common designs - the same for all islands. The earliest and most recent (2008 and beyond) have no distinguishing letter. These are at tthe top of the listings below. For some issues an island is identified by an ENCIRCLED LETTER or serial numbers ending with an identifying SUFFIX LETTER. These issues are listed below under the island name. The identifying letters used are:

A = Antigua; D = Dominica; G = Grenada; K = St Kitts; L = St Lucia; M = Montserrat; U = Anguilla; V = St Vincent
