Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Duit (Overijssel) coin from Indonesia (Netherlands East Indies) is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in the region. The coin was minted between 1803 and 1807, a period when the Dutch East India Company was facing significant challenges and the Indonesian archipelago was experiencing political instability. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a widely used form of currency throughout the region, reflecting the importance of trade and commerce in the area.
