<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 499918, member: 39&quot;]Guess that the sizes of the Dutch collector coins are influenced by what they used to have before the introduction of the euro. The 2.50 NLG circulation coin was 29 mm (like the €5 coincard version), the 10 G was 33 mm (like the new silver-proof version). They also had 50 G commems, diameter 38 mm; that size has not been used (for Dutch euro collector coins) so far.</p><p><br /></p><p>But who knows ... euro pieces with &quot;royalty&quot; themes have been issued as €10 silver coins in the past, size 33 mm. As that size is now used for the €5 silver-proof coins, the Dutch Mint may have to resort to larger pieces for Royal Jubilee, Royal Wedding, etc. silver-proof issues.</p><p><br /></p><p>We&#039;ll have to wait a little longer in order to find out though. Neither of the collector issues planned for this year (&quot;Netherlands-Manhattan&quot; and &quot;Dutch-Japanese relations&quot;) has a royalty theme ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
