X# prefixes in standard references denote fantasy or unofficial issues — pieces produced outside any government mint mandate, typically by private minters exploiting collector demand for commemorative material that official channels wouldn't sanction. This 1978 piece marks the 30th anniversary of Queen Juliana's reign, which began with her mother Wilhelmina's abdication in September 1948 after a decade of wartime exile in London.
No legal tender status, no central bank authorization. Its value to collectors is purely as a curiosity of the period's private medallic industry.
