Rationale: Minted
in Holland beginning in the 17th century to fuel its extraordinary
tenure as the world's foremost commercial trader, the Netherlands
one ducat gold coin offers both strong visual appeal and a scarcity
value that could command a healthy premium in the years to come.
We were able to acquire only a small hoard (and this is the first
time in 31 years we have handled the coin), so we encourage a
quick decision on your part because these one ducats are likely
to be committed in very short period of time. We think you will
find the pricing to be favorable.
Historical: The obverse of the famed ducat coin depicts a knight
holding a bundle of arrows signifying the unity of the six northern
provinces under the 1579 Union of Utrecht -- a declaration of
independence from Spain. The motto Concordia Res Parvae Crescunt
translates to "the union makes small things grow."
(As a pendant this makes for a perfect Valentines gift!) The
legend on the reverse translates to "money of the provinces
of the United Netherlands according to the law of the empire."
The first Netherlands trade ducat was issued in 1487 under Phillip
the Fair and a coin very similar to the one depicted above has
been minted more or less continuously from the early 1600s on.
The net fine weight of 3.5 grams gold never changed to the modern
era. The trade ducat is minted as a gold bullion coin even today.
Only the Venetian ducat has enjoyed greater longevity.
