| Additional information |
The "Centecu" denomination never existed in Dutch monetary history — this is a fantasy or pattern piece, almost certainly a private or promotional issue, which explains the X# catalog reference rather than a standard KM number. X-listed coins in Krause fall outside official government coinage, covering tokens, locals, and speculative issues.
By 1992, the guilder was already under pressure from Maastricht Treaty negotiations signed that same year, which locked the Netherlands into the path toward euro adoption. Whether this piece was struck as commentary, speculation, or commercial novelty is unrecorded.
