7 Black dogs

No coin matching this description — "7 Black Dogs," Nevis, 1801, KM#4 — appears in verified numismatic literature. The "black dog" was a colloquial term for debased billon or low-grade silver coins circulating in the colonial Caribbean, but Nevis had no confirmed independent mint operation producing struck silver coinage in 1801. The island was under British administration and relied primarily on cut and countermarked Spanish colonial currency.
