| Additional information |
Issued to mark the Dutch royal jubilee in 2005, this coin was produced under the authority of the Koninklijke Nederlandse Munt during the reign of Queen Beatrix, who had ascended to the throne in 1980 following the abdication of her mother Juliana. The Netherlands has a well-established tradition of royal abdication rather than death-in-office, and jubilee coinages have consistently accompanied these dynastic transitions and anniversaries.
The .900 fine gold alloy used here matches the historic Dutch monetary standard rather than the higher fineness common in modern bullion issues — a deliberate nod to pre-decimal coinage traditions.
