| Aanvullende informatie |
The Dominican Republic's billon coinage of the 1890s was a direct consequence of chronic fiscal instability — the state had defaulted on foreign debt and lacked the hard currency reserves to support a proper silver issue. The .350 fineness was a deliberate debasement, politically palatable because the coins retained a silver appearance in circulation despite containing more copper than silver by value.
KM#15 was struck in Paris, the Dominican Republic's preferred mint for most of its 19th-century coinage.
