Interesting fact

The 18 Stivers coin from Saint Barthelemy (Overseas France) is interesting because it was minted during a brief period of autonomy for the island, which was a French colony at the time. The coin features the image of a ship on one side and the French coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the island's connection to France and its maritime history.
