Ducaton from Overijssel, 1734
The Ducaton that originates from the Dutch province of Overijssel has an interesting story. VOC ship The Flying Deer (also known as The Flying Heart), leaves the Vlissingen port (in the Dutch province of Zeeland) in 1735, with destination Batavia. About 18 kilometers offshore, things went terribly wrong. The ship hit a sandbank and sank: all 256 people on board died. The wreck of the ship however, wasn’t discovered until 1981. With this discovery, some interesting finds were made: one of these was a money chest, which also contained this Ducaton. This coin from 1734 is the model for our annual restrike of the Ducaton 2025.
