Details

Struck during the Second World War in Philadelphia by the Dutch government for the reorganization of the money in the Netherlands after the liberation. However, due to the increased silver price, these types of coins quickly disappeared from circulation and these coins with the year 1945 were returned to the United States as reparations and are therefore rare. Dangerous counterfeits of this coin exist. When buying such a coin, it is therefore recommended to have it approved in advance by a recognized body, for example the inspection committee of the Dutch Association of Coin Dealers. This also applies to all expensive coins.
