| Comments |
The Curaçaosche Bank served as the central issuing authority for the Netherlands Antilles through the 1960s, a jurisdiction that included Curaçao, Bonaire, Sint Maarten, and the Windward Islands — a genuinely awkward monetary union held together largely by geography's absence. Enschedé printed for Dutch colonial and post-colonial territories throughout this period, and the quality of their intaglio work on Antillean notes is consistently high.
Pick 52 is scarce in circulated grades because the 10 Gulden denomination saw heavy everyday use in the islands' oil-refinery economy, centered on Shell's massive Isla refinery on Curaçao. Notes that worked hard rarely survived.
