1780

  

Netherlands, West-Friesland, 1780 AD Duit (21 mm 3. 39 g), Obv.: WEST FRI SIA 1780 , a rosette between two dots, beneath inscription and date in 4 lines - .(rozet). daaronder WEST FRI SIA , in drie regels en het jaartal 1780. Rev.: crowned arms of West Friesland (a shield with 2 facing lions walking left) within two laurel branches - gekroond wapenschild met hierin twee leeuwen boven elkaar, de leeuwen hebben hun kop en face gericht, dat is tot de kijker gericht. Het wapen is aan beide zijden versierd met lauwertakken. KM 145 ; WES. 135 ; V.76.7 ; PW 3014 ( ) . Not a very special coin for shure - but a nice small change full of history that touched the hands of many common people. Trying to fix the issue i found this very elaborate site helping me to complete the catalogisation: Maybe its useful for those who didnt know the site.
