Interesting fact

The 1 Duit coin from the Province of Zeeland (Dutch Republic) made of Copper and weighing 3.84g is interesting because it was issued during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe. The French Revolution had just begun in 1789, and the Dutch Republic was facing political and economic challenges. Despite these challenges, the Zeeland province continued to issue its own coins, including this 1 Duit coin, which was used as a means of everyday commerce. This coin is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people of Zeeland during a time of great uncertainty.
