As the European powers competed to gain economic advantage through the
exploitation of overseas colonies, it became apparent that use of specific
trade coinage would serve a second purpose by advertising the existence of the
home nation (much as
a newspaper would do in the next era). With Spain the world's leading naval
power prior to 1588, the other nations were forced to act much like pirates as
they tried to garner influence and wealth. After the defeat of the Spanish
Armada, Great Britain
produced its Portcullis coinage in December of 1600. A very few months later,
the Compagnie Van Verre in Amsterdam struck a similar series of silver coins at
the Dordrecht mint which were intended to emulate the Spanish real series.
Those issues by
minmaster Jacol Jansz de Jonge were distributed by the famed Vereenigde
Oostindische Compagnie (VOC) which became powerful shortly after being formed
in 1602. Of the eleven examples of this type believed to be in private hands,
no others are known in a
finer state of preservation. Although not struck in a collar, this piece
appears to be fully round and with minimal stress evident. The pedigree
includes years in the holdings of Randolph Zander as well as the Johnson and
Craig family collections.
Estimated Value $7,500-UP.
