Interesting fact
The Rijksdaalder (Piedfort, klippe) 1646 from West Friesland (Dutch Republic) is interesting because it was issued during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The Dutch Republic was a powerful trading nation during the 17th century, and the Rijksdaalder was an important coin in their currency system. The fact that it was made of silver and weighed 54.48 grams suggests that it was a significant coin with a high value, and its issuance during this time period speaks to the region's economic prosperity and influence.
