[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 58604, member: 669"]Welcome to the forum Patria. Your coin is almost certainly from the Dutch Province of Holland, which gave its name to the whole country in later years. If[list]it weighs about 1.62 grams[*]is about 19.5mm wide[*]one side has the name in three lines above the date, with two dots and a rosette on the top[*]the other side has a crowned shield with a standing lion facing left, with "2" on the left and "S" on the right[/list] you most likely have a 2 stuivers, worth somewhere between it's silver bullion value of ~20¢ and $7 according to the 18th Century volume of the Standard Catalog of World Coins, 2002 3rd Ed. It's struck in .5830 silver. However, if that "32" is struck over "22" you can almost double those values. If you have found an uncirculated example, through those values out the window, Krause doesn't even estimate a value. :D Please post a clear picture, so we can try to estimate its grade for you.[/QUOTE]
