Comment
Earlier dates are Dutch Republic - Utrecht (see link)Interesting fact
The 2 Stuivers coin from the Batavian Republic (Utrecht) minted between 1796 and 1799 is interesting because it was made of silver, specifically .558 silver, which is a relatively high purity level for a circulating coin. This suggests that the Batavian Republic placed a high value on the quality of its currency, even during a time of political and economic upheaval. Additionally, the coin's weight of 1.6 grams is relatively light for a coin of its size and denomination, which may have made it more practical for everyday transactions.
