| Obverse description | Host coin is a French Cayenne Colony 2 Sous piece bearing a crowned shield displaying three fleur-de-lis arranged in a triangular pattern, encircled by a colonial legend. Superimposed upon the obverse field are two applied countermarks: the cursive monogram 'STM' (catalogue reference C16), denoting Sint Maarten, and the single letter 'M' (catalogue reference C20), both struck to validate the host coin for local circulation. The countermarks are punch-applied and appear in the field adjacent to the crowned central device. |
