Comments

(en)

This coin is referred to as ‘zilveren rijder’ in Dutch.

During the Franco-Dutch war of 1672, the mint was moved from Dordrecht to Amterdam. The piedfort coins were produced using a screw press, which was not present in the Amsterdam mint though. Probably these coins were produced by Adolphi in his private mint, as a master proof to apply for a job at the Amsterdam Mint (which he did not get).
