Interesting fact

The 1 Bit ND (1818) coin from Grenada made of Silver weighing 2.10g is interesting because it was minted during a time when Grenada was still a British colony, and it features the image of King George III on one side and the Grenadian coat of arms on the other. This coin was used as a means of currency in Grenada and other British colonies in the Caribbean during the early 19th century.
