Interesting Find

Postby plus1hdcp » Mon Jan 31, 2011 7:18 pm

I found a 1979 Nederland 1 Guldan today. I don't know much about it. While this coin was not in a roll I opened, I found it in the reject tray at the coinstar when dumping a couple of boxes of zinc.

I did find the coin weighs 5.97 g of nickel. Other than that, anyone know anything else about it?

Mintage of 25 million, except for the nickel content there is not much value in this coin. The SILVER Netherlands Guldens, which looks like your coin, ended after 1967.

One interesting part there is stamping on the band - never saw that before and wouldn't have spotted it if not for looking up the coin initially.
