Brought these 2 coins closed to spot price because an old coin collector passed away and his family wanted to sell away some of his old coins. Notice that even though the face value of the coin are the same at 2½ Gulden the weight is totally different by 10 grams. The inflation between 1930 to 1961 is really high after world war II and the dutch most likely had to debase their money 😒
