Additional information

The 1900 quarter gulden falls in the first year of Wilhelmina's sole reign following her mother Emma's regency, which had governed the Netherlands since Willem III's death in 1890. The young queen was only nineteen when this coin entered circulation. The .640 fineness reflects a deliberate reduction from earlier Dutch silver standards — a pragmatic fiscal adjustment that had been phased in during the 1840s and held through the end of the gulden coinage system.
