| Aanvullende informatie |
Suriname's 2000-dated gold issue commemorates the Jules Wijdenbosch Bridge over the Suriname River, completed in 1999 and named after the then-sitting president who championed its construction — a decision that contributed to a severe fiscal crisis. The bridge project, financed largely through deficit spending, helped trigger a currency collapse that saw the Surinamese guilder lose roughly 90% of its value between 1999 and 2001.
The irony of a gold coin denominated in a currency simultaneously imploding was not lost on collectors. Suriname replaced the guilder with the Surinamese dollar in 2004.
