Northern Netherlands – Groningen and Ommelanden
Duit 1771 – with beautiful original mint luster.

Catalogue: CNM 2.20.26 – V.183.4 – PW.8004
Material: Copper

Splendid duit from 1771, struck for Groningen and the Ommelanden within the Republic of the United Netherlands. The coin displays a beautiful, sharp relief and possesses a handsome, authentic original lustre in its warm copper tone. A particularly attractive specimen with a strong visual appeal.

The obverse shows the crowned coat of arms of Stad en Lande, richly rendered with elegant Rococo ornamentation – characteristic of 18th-century provincial coinage.

The reverse side bears the inscription:

GRON. AND / OMMEL / 1771
(Groningen and Ommelanden, 1771)

Between the inscription lies the mint master's mark, indicating the mint master responsible for that year.

Background

The duit was in the 18th century a widely used copper trade coin and formed an essential part of daily monetary transactions within the Republic. Provincial issues such as this one from Groningen are cherished for their regional character and historical significance.

A characterful piece with exceptionally well-preserved relief and natural mint luster.
