Aanvullende informatie

The 1818 copper pattern for a 3 Gulden piece dates to the early years of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, when Willem I was actively pressing for a rationalized silver coinage system to replace the chaotic mixture of provincial currencies that had survived the French occupation. A 3 Gulden denomination was never adopted — the series settled on 1 and 2½ Gulden as the workhorses of the silver system — making this trial strike a dead-end proposal rather than a precursor to anything issued.

Copper patterns of this type were struck for internal review, not circulation. Scholt I#253 is the reference point for this piece within the Dutch pattern literature.
