Interesting fact
The 1 Stuiver - Willem I 1822 coin from Curaçao (Netherlands Antilles) is interesting because it was made of Billon, which is an alloy of silver and other metals, in this case, .300 silver. This means that the coin was not made of pure silver, but rather a combination of silver and other metals, which was a common practice in coinage during that time period.
