The dollar was the currency of Nevis until 1830. The currency consisted of counterstamped Spanish and French colonial coins. The dollar was subdivided into 72 black dogs, each of 1½ pence. Around 1801, coins were issued for 1, 4, 6, 7 and 9 black dogs with the word "Nevis" and the denomination stamped on them. The 1 black dog coins were countermarked on French Guianan 2 sous, whilst the 9 black dogs were made from Spanish colonial 1 real coins. In 1830, sterling was established as the official currency of the island.

Il dollaro era suddiviso in 72 black dogs, ognuno dei quali valeva 1½ pence. Nel 1801 circa furono emesse monete da 1, 4, 6, 7 e 9 black dogs con stampate la parola "Nevis" e la denominazione. Le monete da 1 black dog furono ottenute contromarcando le monete da 2 sous della Guyana francese, mentre quelle da 9 black dogs vennero prodotte dalle monete coloniali spagnole da 1 real. Nel 1830 la sterlina divenne la valuta ufficiale dell'isola. (it)
