Inspired by the vibrant underwater world of Curaçao and Sint Maarten
Design of Caribbean Guilder Revealed
WILLEMSTAD/PHILIPSBURG – Today the Centrale Bank van Curacao en Sint Maarten (CBCS) hosted simultaneous events in Curaçao and Sint Maarten to reveal designs of the new Caribbean banknotes and coins for the first time. The banknotes and coins draw inspiration from the World Under the Sea where fish swim freely, seeing no borders. This serves as a metaphor for the unity shared between the countries of Curaçao and Sint Maarten within its monetary union. The diversity of unique aquatic life serves as a reminder that, despite our distinct identities, we are connected by collaboration and shared objectives.
