Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Gulden - Louis Napoleon 1808-1810 coin from the Netherlands is that it was minted during the brief period of French rule over the Netherlands, known as the Kingdom of Holland. Louis Napoleon, who was the brother of Napoleon Bonaparte, was installed as the King of Holland by his brother in 1806, and he ruled until 1810, when the kingdom was annexed by France. This coin, which features Louis Napoleon's image on one side and the Dutch coat of arms on the other, is a rare and valuable collector's item, with only a limited number of coins minted during this period.
