Description from the seller

Two 1-stuiver coins from Holland, 1738 and 1739
Minted in Dordrecht
In the 1739 issue there is a crack line

One stuiver equals 8 deniers. There are 20 stuivers in a gulden
The coins are struck with 58.3% silver content

This coin is also known as an arrow stuiver and has the value of 1 stuiver

The name 'bezemstuiver' (broom stuiver) or 'arrow stuiver' comes from the design on the coin. On one side there is a tied bundle of arrows (usually seven, symbolizing the Seven United Netherlands). The bottom of the bundle of arrows was in popular slang jokingly compared to a broom.
