I never understood why they call Fries a language. Then so is Limburgs or Vlaams. To me it's a Dutch dialect. But that's my personal opinion. |

I have a coin that reads " It is pretty worn. The back
looks like it was some sort of
coat of arms design. It's
copper colored and is about
the size of a nickel.
Anything?

it is from what is called the Netherlands today. The province of Friesland which back then was Frisia. Your coin is KM# 80 and is a Duit (denomination) and is made of copper. The coin in low grades is worth a dollar or so depending on really how bad it is. The coin seems to be scarce in higher grades and the $30 and up value tells me that. The Dutch were avid travelers as well as traders so their conage can be found all over the world. New York in Colonial times had a large Dutch population so the Duits show up in the ground there as well as Boston and other large cities from that time. The coins were also used in the Dutch East and West Indies. Hope this answers your question. nice find. |
