Interesting fact

The 1 Black Dog ND (1780-1790) coin from Montserrat (British Overseas Territories) made of Billon is interesting because it features a unique design of a black dog on one side, which is said to represent the island's history of sugar production and trade. The coin's design also includes the British monarch's crown and the initials of the island's governor at the time, Sir William Fitzherbert. This coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists due to its limited mintage and historical significance.
