Scottsdale 2025 EC8 Dominica | Mountain Chicken Alpha Strike

2025 EC8 Dominica Mountain Chicken 1oz Silver Coin Alpha Strike

The 2025 EC8 Dominica Mountain Chicken 1oz Silver Coin Alpha Strike is a unique and highly collectible release from Scottsdale Mint’s celebrated Eastern Caribbean 8 (EC8) Series. Struck from 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver, this impressive coin pays tribute to one of Dominica’s most distinctive and unusual native species, the Mountain Chicken.

Despite its name, the Mountain Chicken is not a bird but a large species of frog native to the Caribbean. Recognised as a national symbol of Dominica, this remarkable amphibian plays an important role in the island’s natural heritage and biodiversity.

Produced by the renowned Scottsdale Mint, this beautifully detailed release combines exceptional minting quality with a fascinating wildlife theme. The reverse design showcases the Mountain Chicken in intricate detail, while the obverse features the official effigy of King Charles III and the legal tender denomination issued by the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank.

This special Alpha Strike edition represents some of the earliest coins struck during production, making it particularly desirable among collectors seeking premium examples from the initial minting run.
