Step into Dutch monetary history with this two-coin set from the reign of Queen Wilhelmina. You’ll receive a Netherlands 1930 1 Cent (KM#152) and a 1904 2½ Cents, both struck at the Utrecht Mint. The 1 cent saw a mintage of 10,000,000, while the 2½ cents boasts a comparatively low mintage of 4,000,000, making it notably scarcer for collectors—especially in attractive grades. These bronze classics showcase period design, coin alignment (180°), and a reeded edge on the 1 cent, with compact 19 mm size and ~1 mm thickness for the 1 cent. Perfect for Wilhelmina specialists, European coin enthusiasts, or anyone building a pre-war Netherlands type set.

Why this is a smart buy (collector & investment angles)
-
Historic appeal (1890–1948 reign): Queen Wilhelmina coinage is a cornerstone of Netherlands collections, boosting long-term demand across world-coin sets.
-
-
1904 2½ Cents—4,000,000 struck: A notably lower mintage for a minor-denomination bronze coin of the era, making it comparatively scarcer and more desirable—especially in superior grades.
-
1930 1 Cent—10,000,000 struck: A popular pre-WWII date with strong type-coin demand; survivors in problem-free condition remain collectable.
Mintage dynamics:
-
-
Utrecht Mint pedigree: National mint issuance enhances provenance and catalog traceability (KM references widely used by dealers and auction houses).
-
Set value: Offering two key denominations from the same historical period increases display impact and collection cohesion, often preferred by buyers to single-coin listings.
-
Condition & survival: Bronze coins are prone to wear and environmental toning; attractive color and surfaces can command premiums, supporting potential appreciation over time.
-
Liquidity: Dutch Wilhelmina issues enjoy steady global interest—good for future resale.
Note: “Rarity” depends on grade and eye appeal. The 1904 2½c is low-mintage relative to peers; true rarity/premium varies with condition and market demand.
