Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ½ Duit (Utrecht) coin from Indonesia (Netherlands East Indies) is that it was minted during a time of significant economic and political change in the region. The coin was issued between 1752 and 1790, a period when the Dutch East India Company was facing financial difficulties and the Dutch government was struggling to maintain control over its colonies. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a widely used denomination in the region and is still sought after by collectors today.
