Interesting fact
The Golden Rider coin from the Province of Gelderland (Dutch Republic) is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The coin was introduced in 1606, just a few years after the Dutch Republic gained its independence from Spain, and it was used as a standard circulation coin throughout the region. The coin's design features a knight on horseback, which symbolizes the province's coat of arms, and its gold content of .920 makes it a valuable and sought-after collector's item. Despite its age, the coin remains in good condition and is a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail of the mint masters who created it.
