Interesting fact
The 1 Stuiver "Wapenstuiver" coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Dutch Republic. The coin was issued in 1677-1678, a period known as the "Rampjaar" or "Disaster Year" in Dutch history, when the country was invaded by foreign powers and faced significant economic challenges. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a widely used denomination in the region and is still highly sought after by collectors today.
