Details

Not because of the money purification after World War II, but because of the planned automation of the bar in the evenings, the van Ommeren firm made coins of 10 cents, 25 cents, 1 guilder and 2.5 guilders in 1964 and 1968. Van Ommeren handed in the remaining medals to the State Mint around 1975. This is the rarest of all Ship Money coins.
