Gulden Flowered edge

Holland struck this gulden during the final years before the Dutch Republic's federalized coinage was rationalized under the 1749 Generaliteitsresolutie, which pushed the provinces toward greater monetary uniformity. The flowered edge — a milled collar variant distinguishing it from the plain and lettered-edge issues of the same type — reflects the period's overlapping production runs as the Holland mint at Dordrecht worked through successive technical adjustments. The CNM and Delmonte references document this as a short-lived variety, produced across just two years before the type was superseded.
