I have five old 10 cent coins from Nederlanden which I am assuming is the Netherlands. The oldest is from 1935. They are extemely small coins, the smallest that I have for anyone interested in the size. What do you think it's worth?
Use this as a guide.If you can't read it on your monitor,click the photo a second time to enlarge it. They're not worth a whole lot unless you have a 1944d. edited - copyright
You may well know this - the "D" actually means Denver. (Minted in the US during the German occupation of the Netherlands.) And yes, P and S refer to ... These older Dutch 10 cent coins are silver pieces, as the catalog says. Later ones (1948-2001) are made from nickel. And they all are tiny - diameter is always 15 mm, from the mid-19c throughout the 20c. Christian
Christian,that size does not apply to the Dutch zinc 10c. coin of 1941 to 1944.They are larger. Aidan.
I wasn't fully aware of the extent of foreign coin production at U.S. mints. Very interesting indeed.
The US also minted coins for Australia during WWII (with D and S mintmarks), and for a long time Panamanian coins were minted on the exact same planchets as their US counterparts.
Here is a pic of one I have. It's a Doubled Die Reverse but I can't get a good image of it. I also have a pic of it next to a US Dime to show size.
As for value, not much. There is a rare one from 1944, which Krause lists 3 times with no differentiating except one was almost entirely melted. And a 1945 one is worth $120.00 in Fine condition. On the plus side, until 1945 they had 0.0288 ounces of silver in them.
I have about 5 world doubled dies, with my avatar being the best. Just wish I could get better pics so I could post them.
did anyone see one of these coins with what looks like a dagger going through wilhelminas neck..its deffinatley a mint error..its not a scratch and the coin is in nice shape
