Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Quadruple Pistole - Maurice of Nassau 1618-1619 coin is that it features an error in its inscription. The coin's obverse side bears the inscription "MOaurice PRINCE DE", but the word "PRINCE" is misspelled as "PRINCE DE" instead of "PRINCEPS". This error makes the coin particularly rare and valuable among collectors.
