    ~21.70mm Diameter; ~3.2grams, copper.
    I haven't done any serious research on this, yet.

    Yes, Zeeland was one of the Dutch provinces before it was a united country. It's a duit.

    Side note: At that time there already was a Republic of the United Seven Provinces aka Republic of the Netherlands. But that was a relatively loose federation, and the provinces struck their own money. Zeeland is still a province of today's Netherlands. :)

    Thanks, Christian...The copper ain't worth much, but it's a nice old piece anyway. wlw
