Ολλανδία. 1/2, 2 1/2 Cents Lot van 12 stuks (χωρίς τιμή ασφαλείας)
A curated collection of Netherlands 2½ Cent and ½ Cent bronze coinage spanning the late 19th and early 20th centuries, representing multiple monarchic periods and key transitions within Dutch numismatic history. The group includes identifiable dates such as 1873, 1877, 1881, 1884, 1885, 1904, 1905, 1906, 1915, 1916, and 1934, reflecting issues struck for circulation in the Kingdom of the Netherlands during a period of industrial expansion, colonial influence, and political continuity.
The 2½ Cent pieces prominently display the crowned Dutch coat of arms within a wreath on the reverse, with the denomination “2½ CENT” clearly inscribed. Obverse portraits vary according to reign. Earlier dates such as 1873, 1877, 1881, 1884, and 1885 correspond to King William III, whose bust appears facing right with the surrounding legend denoting his royal titles. These late 19th-century bronze issues were produced during a period when the Netherlands maintained both European and colonial economic interests, including the Dutch East Indies.
Early 20th-century examples, including 1904, 1905, 1906, 1915, and 1916, reflect the reign of Queen Wilhelmina. Her youthful portrait appears on the obverse of these pieces, marking the transition to a new era following the death of William III in 1890. The 1915 and 1916 coins represent World War I–era Dutch neutrality, while the 1934 ½ Cent issue illustrates continued small-denomination production during the interwar period.
The ½ Cent coins display the crowned Dutch arms or royal monograms consistent with the period of issue, struck in bronze and intended for everyday domestic commerce. These low-denomination coins served as practical currency within the Dutch gulden system, supporting small transactions in both urban and rural markets across the Netherlands.
Struck at the Royal Dutch Mint (Rijksmunt), primarily in Utrecht, these coins demonstrate consistent engraving standards and heraldic continuity. The progression from William III to Wilhelmina within the curated selection highlights dynastic change while maintaining national symbolism centered on the crowned lion shield.
This curated Netherlands bronze denomination collection offers chronological diversity, multiple reigns, and clearly dated circulation pieces from 1873 through 1934. The grouping appeals to collectors of Dutch pre-euro coinage, 19th-century European bronze issues, Wilhelmina and William III portrait series, and structured denomination runs within the gulden monetary system.
