Obverse description Countermark applied to the obverse field, consisting of the initials 'SM' in raised Latin letters enclosed within an oval cartouche bordered by a beaded or dotted frame. The countermark is boldly struck into the host coin's surface, with the surrounding field showing residual detail of the original host coin beneath the displaced metal. The countermark identifies the issuing authority of Sint Maarten and serves as the primary authenticating device authorizing the coin for local circulation.
