Reversbeschreibung	The denomination 250 CENT is rendered in large numerals and lettering at the center of the field. The date appears above the denomination, flanked on either side by the mint mark and privy mark when present. The central device is enclosed within a raised circular border complemented by an ornamental ring of design elements, giving a neat and formal appearance consistent with Dutch colonial coinage tradition.

Zusätzliche Informationen	The 250 Cents denomination emerged from Suriname's post-independence monetary reorganization following the 1975 break from the Netherlands. The country's early decades of sovereignty were marked by military coups, currency instability, and hyperinflation that effectively rendered lower denominations meaningless — the 250 Cents piece survived largely because the inflated economy demanded higher-value circulating coinage simply for routine transactions. By the time the series ended in 2015, Suriname had already introduced the Surinamese dollar in 2004 at a conversion rate of 1,000 old guilder cents to 1 new dollar cent, making this denomination a transitional relic kept in production well past the reform.
