The obverse of the 2024 1 oz Cayman Islands Silver Sea Life Marlin Coins presents the national coat of arms of the Cayman Islands. This design includes a central shield with three stars over stylized waves. A lion appears at the top of the shield, with a turtle and pineapple sitting above. The background shows gentle, rippling waves.

On the reverse, you’ll see the marlin, a powerful fish found throughout the Caribbean. Marlins play a vital role in the marine ecosystem as top predators, maintaining fish populations and reflecting the health of the ocean. Sadly, marlins face threats from overfishing, both through sport fishing and bycatch in commercial operations.

In Caribbean folklore and art, marlins are symbols of strength and freedom, representing the untamed power of the sea. Their significance has been immortalized in local traditions and literature, such as Ernest Hemingway’s famous novel The Old Man and the Sea, where a marlin features prominently in the story.

These 2024 1 oz Cayman Islands Silver Sea Life Marlin Coins come with proof-like finishes, combining frosted and mirrored details. Each coin is housed in a protective flip, with larger orders of 20 coins packaged in tubes.
