The Story of Dutch East Indies Tenth Gulden


I don't know that the Dutch East Indies Tenth Gulden coin has an unique story untill I read this: "These coins were minted in the USA for the Netherlands during WW2, when the royal mint at Utrecht was not available. They were intended for use in the unnocupied portions of the Indies.."

It has just 15 mm in diameter and made of .7200 silver. Very small coin. These coins are uncirculated and issued in year 1941.
