| 表面の説明 | Rectangular incuse counterstamp applied to the host coin's obverse, bearing the crowned and entwined script monogram 'SV' (for Saint Vincent) in raised relief within a sunken punch. The counterstamp occupies the central field and shows clear definition of the intertwined letters beneath a small crown. The surrounding field retains the irregular, worn surface of the underlying host coin planchet. |

The stampee was a fractional currency solution common to the Eastern Caribbean during the chronic small-change shortages of the Napoleonic Wars period, when Spanish and French colonial coins were routinely cut, countermarked, and re-denominated by British island administrations scrambling to keep local commerce functional. Saint Vincent's version involved plugging or countermarking existing billon pieces — not minting from scratch — which is why surviving examples vary considerably in their host coin origins.
The Type I designation distinguishes the earliest countermark application before administrative changes altered the punch.
