Neth 1911 gulden rev P177-35143.jpg

This specimen was lot 35143 in Ponterio sale 177 (Chicago, August 2013), where it sold for $147. The catalog description[1] noted, "NETHERLANDS. Gulden, 1911. PCGS AU Details-Cleaning, Secure Holder. Cleaned long ago, now attractively toned." This type, listed for 1910-17, superseded a similar type (KM 122.2) struck 1904-09 with a different hairstyle for the queen.
