Comment
Appears to be a unique piece.Interesting fact
This coin was designed by the Dutch mint to commemorate the coronation of Louis Napoleon, who was the brother of Napoleon Bonaparte and the King of Holland from 1806 to 1810. The coin features an image of Louis Napoleon on one side and a depiction of the Dutch lion on the other. However, the coin was never officially released into circulation, making it a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists.
