    I don’t believe any of the coins of the Netherlands were legal tender, but were nonetheless used in commerce during colonial times according to
    my sources. I’ve included numerous coins from the Netherlands in my “US” collection. Copper, silver and gold. I included a Silver Rider and a Gold Rider.

    Having some Holland thalers (daalder, leventhaler, dogt) you wouldn't be hungry, I guess). Perhaps some rare irregular types of coins were melted to ingots for trading or jewelry.

    Sic semper tyrannis.
