Coins are struck to proof quality on a .9999 fine silver planchet guaranteed to contain 1 oz. of silver. The series met with great success when it was introduced in 2017 due to its beauty and low mintage.

The Classic Dutch "Lion Dollar" Trade Coin

The obverse features the timeless image of a Dutch knight standing in front of a shield bearing a fierce lion. The image is encircled by two beadwork rims and inscriptions. The reverse image of the coin has the same roaring lion depicted much larger than the obverse. It is also surrounded by two beadwork circles and the inscriptions. The design was digitally enhanced from the original 1617 coins.
