We opened the tin, and to our surprise found these shiny silver coins from WWII Netherlands \u00a9 Frank H. Jump<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The coins bearing the fourth portrait of Wilhelmina, from 1922 to 1945, were downgraded to 0.720 silver, which lowered their weight to 9.9g. Three different\u00a0privy marks\u00a0were issued: a\u00a0seahorse\u00a0from 1922 to 1931,\u00a0grapes\u00a0from 1938 to 1940 and an\u00a0acorn\u00a0from 1941 to 1945. During the Nazi German occupation of the Netherlands, no guilder coins were issued of the zinc coins circualted by the Nazis, but Dutch guilder coins were struck in the\u00a0United States. In 1943 they were struck at theDenver Mint\u00a0in\u00a0Colorado\u00a0and in 1944 at the\u00a0Philadelphia Mint\u00a0in\u00a0Pennsylvania\u00a0and the\u00a0San Francisco Mint\u00a0in\u00a0California. In 1945, 25,375,000 were issued in Philadelphia. – <\/em>Wikipedia<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
