Netherlands 1/2 and 1 Cent 1817 to 1877

I like old copper coins. In America we have some neat old coppers, and in the Netherlands, they do too! The big W stands for King William.

Catalogs assign decent values to these old beauties. As always, the more wear, the less value. And problems like scratches, stains, cleanings, holes, and the like lower the value to almost zero. Be sure to apply the concepts on our Terminology page to the catalog values shown below.
