Not a government issue. This is a fantasy piece — privately produced, not authorized by the Dutch state or the Rijksmunt — combining Beatrix, who acceded to the throne in April 1980, with Prince Maurits, her second son, born that same year. The pairing has no basis in any official coinage program; it exists purely as a novelty commemorating the coincidence of a new reign and a royal birth. The X# reference places it firmly in the Unusual World Coins catalog, the standard repository for such privately struck pieces.
