Original – A first issue of the Kingdom of the Netherlands administration's gulden in the East Indies. This note, with a face value of one gulden, was issued in 1815. The text is in both Dutch and Jawi, for both the Dutch and indigene inhabitants of the Indies.
Reason
Another lovely scan of an old banknote from the Smithsonian, by our very own Godot13. This note, with a face value of one gulden, was issued in 1815. The text is in both Dutch and Jawi, for both the Dutch and indigene inhabitants of the Indies. Note that the obverse is blank, and is thus not included.
