Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Willem I 25 Cents coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in the Netherlands. The coin was introduced in 1817, just a year after the Netherlands had regained its independence from France, and it was minted until 1830, the year that Willem I abdicated and was succeeded by his son, Willem II. This period saw significant political, social, and economic changes in the Netherlands, and the coin serves as a tangible reminder of that time.
