Historical Context: Issued in 1593, this coin emerges from the crucible of the Dutch Revolt, or Eighty Years' War (1568-1648). West Friesland, a vital province within the nascent Dutch Republic, played a significant role in establishing the independent state. During this tumultuous period, stable and recognizable currency was paramount for trade and daily transactions. The Stuiver served as a foundational denomination in the burgeoning economy of the United Provinces.
Artistry: The engraver of this piece remains anonymous, common for provincial mints of the late 16th century.
