This regional institution supports the economies of several island countries, including Montserrat. Also called the Emerald Isle of the Caribbean, Montserrat is recognized for its lush terrain and the presence of the Soufrire Hills volcano, which has shaped the islands environment since its eruptions began in the 1990s. **Reverse** On the reverse of the coin, a starfish design pays tribute to one of the native species in Montserrats waters. These waters are rich in minerals due to volcanic activity, helping to nourish many types of starfish, including the cushion star, royal sea star, and the uncommon nine-armed starfish. **History** The natural behavior of starfishmoving across the ocean floor and consuming foodhelps spread nutrients and break down material in the water. These activities benefit ocean health, especially around Montserrat, where reefs are still recovering from volcanic eruptions. Starfish have proven to be an important part of restoring these areas and supporting sea life in the region. **Ordering** If you need assistance or have questions about buying gold, contact BGASC at 888-992-4272 or reach us online anytime. **Buying Gold And Silver Coins With BGASC Is Convenient And Secure** BGASC is Fast, Reliable, and Trusted.
