Aanvullende informatie

British Guiana's 1838 stiver issues were emergency plantation tokens, not government coinage — produced to address a chronic shortage of small change in the colony following emancipation, when the sudden shift to a wage economy created immediate demand for low-denomination currency that London was slow to supply. The KM#Tn2 attribution reflects its token status; these pieces circulated under private or colonial mercantile authority rather than Crown issue.
