Woudagemaal 5 Euro Coin 2020

Not just in the Netherlands, but in the whole world, water poses many problems. There are three main issues: too much, too little or too dirty water. The Woudagemaal is a laudable example of Dutch water management and represents the highlight of Dutch engineers and architects in the war against water. 

Design

Visual artist Berend Strik designed the Woudagemaal 5 Euro Coin. It is the first commemorative coin which depicts King Willem-Alexander with his beard. The Woudagemaal 5 Euro Coin is therefore highly wanted and is a memorable coin in Dutch coin history. On the obverse of the coin, the waving flag of the province of Friesland is visible behind the portrait of King Willem-Alexander. Underneath, you will see a fragment of the canals surrounding the Woudagemaal. On the reverse, a drawing of the Woudagemaal in straight and simple lines is found. All is depicted from a bird’s-eye view, to show the steam pumping station in the characteristic landscape. The font used on both sides of the coin is the same as found on the steam engines inside the Woudagemaal.
