Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Daalder / 24 Stiver coin from the Lordship of Bergh is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the Dutch States. William IV, who ruled from 1546 to 1586, was faced with the challenge of maintaining the independence of the Dutch States from the powerful Spanish Empire. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, with intricate details and designs that showcase the skill of the mint's craftsmen.
