    Nice Duit , the earlier ones , also had the motto around the lion in the waves = LUCTOR ET EMERGO ( I struggle and keep afloat)
    minted in the town of Middelburg province of Zeeland, not for the Netherlands , but for the VOC = United East Indies Company
    a dutch company (state) within the state of the United Netherlands , they had their own army , their own coins , their own fleet , their own justice system and their own government.

    I cannot make out the legend, but the Roman coin looks like it is from the reign of Hadrian, about 50 years post 70 AD.

    Silverpop, what is your primary focus in your collection? Do you collect anything which catches your eye or do you have an area that you really are trying to finish?
