Owner Comments:
The provinces of the Dutch Republic minted several crown sized silver coins -- daalder, ducat, 3 gulder and ducaton. The ducaton was the largest with a value of 60 stuivers. Known as the "Silver Rider" for its obserse design, it was produced from 1659 to 1798 and it's one of my favorite coin designs.
