Jean Elsen sale 120, lot 1480
Utrecht 1796 ducaton rev JElsen 120-1480.jpg

This specimen was lot 1480 in Jean Elsen sale 120 (Brussels, March 2014), where it sold for €8,250 (about US$13,565 including buyer's fees. The catalog description[1] noted,

"NEDERLAND, De Bataafse Republiek (1795-1806), AR dukaton (zilveren rijder), 1796, Utrecht. Slechts 435 st. geslagen. Droit: Ridder te paard n.r. boven het gekroond provinciewapen. Revers: Gekroond Generaliteitswapen gehouden door twee leeuwen. Uiterst Zeldzaam. Prachtexemplaar met mooie patina. FDC. (Netherlands, the Batavian Republic, silver ducaton of 1796, Utrecht mint. Obverse: Mounted knight charges to right, provincial arms below; reverse: crowned arms of the Generality supported by two lions. Very rare proof example with nice patina, uncirculated."

The specimen is one of a type issued for the province of Utrecht 1739-94. This date is very rare, being one of a few issued under the Batavian Republic, a French puppet state of 1796-1806. Rampant smuggling with Britain caused Napoleon to install his brother Louis as king of Holland in 1806; when that failed, the Netherlands were annexed outright in 1810. After his fall, the Netherlands were reconstituted as a kingdom.

Recorded mintage: 435.

Specification: 32.78 g, 0.941 fine silver, .991 troy oz ASW, obliquely reeded edge, this specimen 32,50 g.

Catalog reference: Sch-42; Delm-1031, Dav-1832; KM-16.
