Netherlands 1967 10 cents

from the Stonecat Collection

Queen Wilhelmina abdicated in 1948 in protest of Dutch colonial policy in Indonesia in favor of her daughter, Juliana, who would rule until 1980. New coin types were therefore necessary and were introduced in 1950. This nickel ten cents was struck 1950-51, 1954-80. No dates are rare although some of the proofs are very scarce.

Recorded mintage: 39,000,000 plus proofs.

Specification: 1.5 g, nickel, 15 mm diameter.

Catalog reference: KM 182, Sch-1180.
