Comment
Design for a 3 guilder coin, 1680 by Daniël Drappentier.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Gulden 1680 coin from the Province of Holland (Dutch Republic) is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally placed there by the mint to signify the coin's authenticity and to prevent counterfeiting. This feature is known as a "proof mark" and was commonly used in coins during that time period.
