Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Gulden 1713-1714 coin from West Friesland is that it features a unique design element - a small sailing ship, known as a "fluyt," on the reverse side. This ship was a common sight in the region during that time period and was used for trade and commerce. The inclusion of this design element on the coin highlights the importance of maritime trade and commerce in the Dutch Republic during the early 18th century.
