Description from the seller
Northern Netherlands – Groningen and Ommelanden
Ducat 1771 – with beautiful original mint lustre
Catalog: CNM 2.20.26 – V.183.4 – PW.8004
Material: Copper
Stunning ducat from 1771, minted for Groningen and the Ommelanden within the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands. The coin displays a gorgeous, sharp relief and possesses a fine, authentic original lustre in its warm copper color. A particularly attractive specimen with a strong visual appeal.
The obverse shows the crowned coat of arms of City and Lands (Stad en Lande), richly executed with elegant Rococo ornamentation – typical for the 18th-century provincial coinage.
The reverse bears the inscription:
“GRON. EN / OMMEL / 1771”
(Groningen and Ommelanden, 1771)
Between the inscription is the mint master’s mark, referring to the responsible mint master of that year.
Background
In the 18th century, the ducat was a commonly used copper trade coin and formed an essential part of daily payment traffic within the Republic. Provincial issues like this one from Groningen are loved for their regional character and historical significance.
A characterful piece with exceptionally well-preserved relief and natural coin lustre.
