| Additional information |
Willem I authorized the Netherlands East Indies coinage series in the early 1820s as part of a broader rationalization of colonial monetary administration following the restoration of Dutch control over Java after the Napoleonic interregnum. The 1/8 stuiver was the smallest denomination in that system, intended to facilitate petty trade in local markets where fractional values mattered enormously. Production ran across both the Utrecht and Harderwijk mints, with attribution between the two facilities remaining a source of ongoing collector debate for this type.
