| 背面描述 | Reverse of the quarter-circle segment retains partial design elements of the original Spanish colonial host coin, worn and partially obscured by the cutting process. No additional countermarks are present on this side. The surface shows the characteristic irregular cut edges and the remnant of the host coin's reeded periphery along the curved arc. |

During the Napoleonic Wars, Britain seized the Dutch Caribbean colonies to prevent French exploitation of their ports. Curaçao changed hands multiple times between 1800 and 1815, and the British administration faced a persistent shortage of small silver. The solution was pragmatic: existing Spanish colonial coinage was countermarked and revalued to circulate at locally defined rates, creating a parallel currency tied to neither Spanish nor Dutch monetary conventions.
The C4 countermark — applied under British authority in 1814, just one year before the island was formally returned to the Netherlands at the Congress of Vienna — is among the more scarce of the Curaçao countermark types.
