Owner Comments:
Curacao 2-1/2 Gulden (KM# 46) 1944D (Palm Tree privy mark) - Mintage: 200,000
(60,000 coins melted down after minting)
Lettered Edge: "GOD * ZIJ * MET * ONS *"
This coin was minted in Denver for circulation in the Dutch Colony of Curacao during World War II. It is interesting to note that the O in CURACAO is actually tilted.
This is a really nice, bright white coin. A couple of contact marks principally on the check and some scuffing in the hair is all that keeps this coin from getting a higher grade.
Date acquired: 5/8/2013 (already graded by NGC)
