Interesting fact

The ½ Dollar ND (1801) coin from Saint Kitts (Saint Kitts and Nevis) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during a time when the island was still a British colony, and it features a unique design that reflects the island's history and culture. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of King George III, while the reverse side depicts a sugar cane plant, which was a major crop and export of the island at the time. The coin's silver content and historical significance make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
