Brief French History
France issued colonial coins for use in its Caribbean islands of Martinique, Guadaloupe, Dominique (western Hispaniola, now Haiti), under the name Colonies Françaises.

French Caribbean Coins
Coins with the designation "Colonies Françaises" were intended for general use in the island colonies listed above. Coins for use in other French possessions of the itme were designated differently.
The earliest coins of these issues were dated 1717, and the last date was 1844.
