Description

Reigning from 1890 to 1948, Queen Wilhelmina ruled the Netherlands longer than any other Dutch monarch, including through two world wars and the Great Depression. Outside the Netherlands she is mainly remembered as a source of inspiration for the Dutch resistance during World War II. In her country, Wilhelmina was a symbol of national unity.

The reverse of the 10 Florins shows the royal coat of arms, placed between the denomination “10 G”. The words "KONINGRIJK DER NEDERLANDEN" and the date surround these images. This Dutch coin also features a seahorse and a caduceus (a winged staff with two entwined serpents) respectively placed on each side of the date.

On the obverse Queen Wilhelmina is depicted surrounded by the engravings "KONINGIN WILHELMINA - GOD ZIJ MET ONS". These coins were produced in two separate series with slightly different design versions. The first series presents a portrait of the queen with a tiara on her head and her shoulders covered by a cloth. The second series is the version that can be seen on the image here on our site, i.e. the profile of the queen truncated on the neck. While the reverse remains unchanged in both series.
