The 1914 Netherlands East Indies 1 cent is a beautiful example of colonial coinage struck under Queen Wilhelmina. This series is particularly notable for its dual-language design, reflecting the administrative and cultural intersection of the Netherlands and its territories in the Malay Archipelago (modern-day Indonesia).

These bronze cents were minted in the Netherlands and shipped to the East Indies to facilitate trade in the colonial economy. Dimensions: Bronze. 23.5 mm. 4 g. Pickup category timeslot {A}
