The ...history of currency in the former British colony of Trinidad and Tobago is closely linked to the history of the British Eastern Caribbean territories as a whole. The first currency used was the Spanish dollar, also known as the "figure of eight", which began to circulate in the 16th century. Proposals for the establishment of landowner-oriented banks in the West Indies were made in 1661 by the British government and in 1690 by Sir Thomas Dalby. Despite this, and the Queen Annes Proclamation of 1704, which brought the West Indies on the gold standard, the eight silver coins (Spanish dollars and then Mexican dollars) continued to form the bulk of circulating currency well into the second half of the nineteenth century.
