Northern Netherlands – Republic of the Seven United Netherlands (1581–1795)

Historical silver broom-stiver from 1738, minted in Dordrecht for the province of Holland under mint master Otto Buck, with the rose as mint mark.

Holland played a prominent role in this period as an economic, political and maritime center, with the Dordrecht mint making an important contribution to provincial coinage.
