Buying silver guilders is an excellent way to invest in physical silver. Old Dutch coins, such as the silver guilder, silver rijksdaalder, and silver tenner, are not only popular because of their historical value, but also because of their silver content. These coins are a beautiful combination of heritage and precious metal, making them popular with collectors and investors alike.
The Dutch guilder was minted in silver during various periods and has a rich history as a means of payment and an investment object. From 1818 to 1967, guilders were made with a silver content of 72%, with portraits of kings and queens such as William I, William III, and Wilhelmina. After 1967, silver made way for nickel, making older silver guilders popular with collectors and investors in precious metals today.
Why buy silver guilders?
The silver guilder, which was minted in the Netherlands between 1818 and 1967, contains a high percentage of silver. Most silver guilders have a silver content of 72%. This makes these coins not only a historically interesting purchase, but also a valuable physical investment.
In addition to the silver guilder, other iconic Dutch coins are also available, such as the silver rijksdaalder (72% silver), the silver tenner (80% silver), and the special silver 50 guilder piece, which contains no less than 92.5% silver. These coins offer an excellent opportunity to invest in physical silver, with a low entry threshold and a stable intrinsic value.
What makes Dutch coinage so special?
Dutch silver coinage is unique because of its rich history and high quality. These coins were minted with the precision and craftsmanship that are characteristic of the Royal Dutch Mint. Dutch silver coins have a rich history and are popular with collectors and investors in precious metals. The silver guilder, with a silver content of 72%, was minted until 1967. This year marked the transition to nickel, which put an end to the production of silver guilders. In addition to the guilder, there was the rijksdaalder, a coin with a value of 2.5 guilders, which also contained 72% silver.
Another popular silver coin is the silver 10 guilder, which was issued between 1995 and 1999. This coin had a silver content of 80% and is highly valued by lovers of precious metals. The 50 guilder piece, which was minted to celebrate special occasions, is a real eye-catcher. With an impressive silver content of 92.5%, this coin is one of the most special in Dutch coinage history.
