<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1449026, member: 112&quot;]Kind of figured that was around the time frame you were talking about, the start of it anyway. </p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately the books are mostly written in Dutch or French, so unless you can read those languages, or learn to, you&#039;re going to have a hard time. But there are 2 books in particular that will be immensely helpful. And they will help solve the language issue. They are - Le Benelux D&#039;Or (french) De Gouden Benelux (dutch) by A. Delmonte. And - Le Benelux D&#039;Argent (french) De Zilveren Benelux (dutch) The Silver Benelux (english), also by A. Delmonte.</p><p><br /></p><p>The silver book, being written in all 3 languages, makes it much easier to learn how to translate the gold book. But both of these books are rather expensive and neither of them is easy to find. But they can be found.</p><p><br /></p><p>Meanwhile, you can find some useful information here - <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t14057/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t14057/">http://www.cointalk.com/t14057/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Not all of the links still work, but as I explained in another part of the Numismatic Resources section, you can still access most of them by using the internet archive system.</p><p><br /></p><p>And, any questions you might have, feel free to ask, start another thread or several if you like. I used to collect Netherlands coinage from this period, have written about some of it, and have some books beyond those I mentioned. You can also take a look at my albums here on CT to see pics of some of the Netherlands coins I used to own.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
