背面描述	The reverse is entirely blank, presenting a plain, unadorned field characteristic of an obverse trial striking intended solely to test the obverse die. A small rectangular incuse maker's mark reading MET. is impressed at the lower rim, serving as the only device on this otherwise featureless surface.

附加信息	Anguilla's 1969–1970 coinage emerged from one of the more unusual episodes in Caribbean political history: the island's unilateral secession from the associated state of St. Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla, declared in 1967 after Anguillans expelled the St. Kitts police force and held their own independence referendum. Britain, reluctant to recognize the breakaway, nonetheless negotiated an uneasy arrangement — and the issuance of local coinage was part of Anguilla's effort to assert administrative independence. This obverse trial represents the experimental phase of that project, a monetary gesture from a microstate that technically did not yet exist in any recognized form.
