| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned shield of Holland bearing a rampant lion, the crown rising prominently above the escutcheon. The date appears in the upper field flanking the crown, with the denomination mark 'X St' (ten stuivers) divided to the right of the shield. The peripheral legend is arranged around the coin in abbreviated Latin, reading from the lower left. The overall design is rendered in bold relief with a finely milled border, characteristic of Dutch provincial gold coinage of the mid-eighteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Holland's 10 Stuivers gold pieces from this period were struck under the authority of the States of Holland and West Friesland, one of the seven sovereign provinces managing its own mint operations with considerable independence from the broader Dutch Republic apparatus. The .986 fineness places this well above the standard for most contemporary European gold coinage, a deliberate policy by Holland's merchant-dominated government to maintain the province's reputation in international trade settlements where coin quality was scrutinized by weight and assay, not face value.
The issue spans a 22-year window that brackets the War of Austrian Succession, during which Dutch financial obligations stretched provincial minting capacity considerably.
