| Additional information |
The gold rider — named for its equestrian type — was a provincial issue struck by several of the Dutch Republic's constituent provinces acting on their own monetary authority, often in open competition with one another. Overijssel's emissions were among the smaller series; the province lacked the commercial volume of Holland or Zeeland, and its output reflected that. The 1760–1763 date range corresponds to heightened demand for hard coin during the Seven Years' War, when Dutch merchants supplying multiple belligerents drained bullion reserves across the Republic's provinces simultaneously.
