| Beschrijving keerzijde | The Dutch coat of arms, comprising a shield charged with a rampant lion facing dexter and holding a bundle of arrows and a sword, is centrally positioned in the field. The shield is surmounted by the ornate Dutch royal crown with pearled rim and orb. The denomination '1/2' appears to the left of the shield and 'C.' to the right, both at mid-field. Crossed swords and a small decorative device are visible below the shield at the lower left and right, serving as mint marks or ornamental elements. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Willem III's half-cent was issued under the Coinage Act of 1847, which rationalized the Dutch monetary system in preparation for what would become a decades-long copper series. Production ran across the Utrecht mint with occasional interruptions tied to shifting demand for the smallest denomination in circulation — by the 1870s, the coin's purchasing utility had eroded to the point where the half-cent was effectively worthless in daily commerce. The denomination was abolished in 1877, the same year this type ceased production.
