Owner Comments:

Too bad it is filed. 1586 is considered the start date for this series that is still getting struck today.

NGC does not let me see their population reports on Holland or other provinces before 1601. So, I don't know how many of this date have been graded from any province.

At PCGS, no Holland 1587s are certified.
PCGS has graded a 1587 Gelderland ducat in AU55, and it looks good, but, I still think the face on my coin is more clear!

There is one Utrecht 1587 in AU53.

This one looks better.
PCGS also graded a West Friesland 1587 in AU53, which is a different, more "Hungarian, style." It is kind of wavy and worn looking compared to this coin, in my opinion.

There is, and have been, some slightly more ragged looking 1587s on MA-SHOPS in the last couple years.
