A Marine Icon of the Cayman Islands
For centuries, Loggerhead Turtles have nested on Cayman beaches, symbolizing endurance and life at sea. Christopher Columbus named the islands “Las Tortugas” in 1503 for their abundance, marking their historic importance. Once vital to the islanders’ survival, the Loggerhead now stands as a global emblem of conservation.
Preserving a Legacy
After centuries of overharvesting led to population decline, the Cayman Islands became a leader in sea turtle conservation. With protected nesting sites and active monitoring programs, the Loggerhead is a story of survival and recovery — mirroring the resilience of the islands themselves.
This coin is more than a collectible — it’s a timeless celebration of heritage, conservation, and the enduring bond between the Cayman Islands and its marine treasures.
