Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Gulden coin from the Province of Holland (Dutch Republic) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and cultural growth in the region. The Dutch Republic was a powerful trading nation during the 17th and 18th centuries, and the 3 Gulden coin was an important part of its currency system. The coin's design features a portrait of the Dutch Stadtholder, William III, who was also the King of England at the time. This coin is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the Netherlands during this period.
