Interesting fact

The 1834 Saint Barthelemy 1 Stiver coin was minted during a brief period of independence for the island. Saint Barthelemy, also known as Saint Barts or St. Barts, was a French colony from 1648 until 1810, when it was captured by the British. In 1834, the island was returned to France, and it became an overseas department in 1878. The 1 Stiver coin was minted during this brief period of independence, making it a unique and interesting piece of numismatic history.
