Comment

In 2004, the Surinamese gulden was replaced by the Surinamese dollar. This coin was revalued at 1 dollar.

Two edge varieties exist (see edge photo):
Flat edge is 1.8mm thick
Beveled edge is 1.7mm thick

The years 2015, 2017, and 2021 coins have three small stars on the reverse with micro engraving of the value. (Schön: Mikroschrift mit den Ziffern der Wertzahl auf drei Sternen)
