    Not quite sure what the question mark means :) but here is the latest Dutch collector coin. The piece was issued in May and is dedicated to Multatuli's book "Max Havelaar", first published 150 years ago.

    One side shows a quill pointing at the beginning of the novel; the other side shows a portrait of Queen Beatrix made from lots of little cubes and lines. Here is some info in English about the design:

    Here are the two obverses; the first one is the Queen on the "circulation" version, the second one is the obverse of the proof version:
