| Beschrijving voorzijde | A standing female figure, facing front, representing Liberty, holds a liberty cap atop a pole in her raised right hand while resting her left arm at her side; she is flanked on either side by fasces. The denomination '30 SOLS' appears prominently in the field to the right of the figure. The legend 'D.HAITI. MONNOIE' is inscribed around the periphery, with the date '1807' in the exergue. The design reflects the neoclassical artistic style prevalent in early Haitian coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Henri Christophe issued this piece during the fractured period following Dessalines's assassination in October 1806, when Haiti split into a southern republic under Pétion and a northern state under Christophe. The essai designation is significant — Christophe's northern administration was still establishing its monetary framework, and pattern or trial pieces from this moment are exceptionally rare survivors of an institution being built from nothing.
KM#8 trial pieces seldom appear at auction. Most known examples trace back to a small number of European collections, suggesting the essais were sent abroad rather than circulated domestically.
