Cayman Islands Sea Life Series
Since its debut in 2018, the Cayman Islands Sea Life Series has spotlighted the vibrant marine life found throughout Caribbean waters, from the powerful Marlin to the graceful Stingray. Each annual release invites collectors to explore a new creature native to the region, paired with the same treasured coat of arms design. The 2026 issue turns the spotlight to the Loggerhead Turtle, a species deeply tied to the islands' history and conservation story.

Scottsdale Mint is a private mint based in the United States known for producing bullion and collectible coins on behalf of nations such as the Cayman Islands, Fiji, Barbados, and Gibraltar.

Its partnership with the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority has made the Sea Life Series one of the most anticipated releases each year.

The Loggerhead Turtle
The Loggerhead Turtle carries deep historical weight in the Cayman Islands, where explorer Christopher Columbus once named the islands Las Tortugas after the abundant sea turtles he found there. Commercial harvesting once pushed local turtle populations to the brink, but decades of conservation work by the Cayman Islands Department of Environment have helped loggerhead nesting numbers recover significantly since the late 1990s. Today the species stands as a symbol of the islands' ongoing commitment to protecting its marine heritage.
