Ducats edge inconsistencies

Recommended Posts

I have a full 10 piece set of Ducats from 1989 to 2000.

7 of them have poor quality edge engravement, and the reeds seem to have inconsistent depth from coin to coin (or even on the same coin). They are produced by KNM (Royal Dutch Mint), look great otherwise  and none of my other coins from the KNM have any notable production errors (50G, 10G silver/gold, 2.5G). There is also a small fleck on the edge of my gold double ducat but it's so tiny and the edge is so thin I find it hard to see whether this is due to damage from handling or if it came like that from the mint.

I noticed this today and I just wanted to share this. Not all of them have this problem but beware before buying if this is important to you, and check the edges of Dutch ducats. You may want to find a better quality coin or try to get a discount.

Happy stacking and best wishes for 2021.
