Part of the “Day of the mint” annual BU coin set “20 years of farewell to the guilder”.
The medal shows the very first guilder from 1818 with the portrait of King William I in a special graphic design on the obverse. Around the portrait, you can see the phrases “AFSCHEID VAN DE GULDEN” (“Farewell to the guilder”) and “20 JAAR” (“20 years”). On the reverse, the first year that the guilder was issued, 1818, and the last year, 2001, are inscribed. The mint and privy mark are also depicted here.
