Comment

Between 2013 and 2015 celebration are held in different parts of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to commemorate its bicentennial anniversary. Aruba, which forms part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands since 1636, issued a silver 5 Florin coin to commemorate this special occasion. Johannes van Walbeeck, in service of the West Indian Company, was the first Dutch commander to set foot to Aruba. Important Dutch landmarks in Aruba are the Fort Zoutman (and the King William III tower) and the Old Mill.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the cultural heritage of Aruba, with an image of a traditional Aruban fishing boat on one side and the coat of arms of Aruba on the other.
