Silver rijders Silver Riders )

[cornelis 816]

I have posted this before , a long time ago . I thought it may be of use by some newcomers to identify treasure ( when they find it ) . These are coins that were in use in the trade with Asia . Every province in the Netherlands had their own coin . Cornelius

I bought a single Silver Rider in the Java Auction. It is a superb coin! Seldom find any sea salvaged Riders for sale but there is a 1711 coin on Ebay now.

Are their any notable Caribbean wrecks that these Riders have been recovered? Thanks for your fine examples.
