The Peace of Münster, 1648

After eighty years of war, peace finally prevailed.

This impressive silver medal was struck in 1648 to commemorate the Peace of Münster, the treaty by which Spain formally recognized the independence of the Dutch Republic. It marked a defining moment in Dutch history and paved the way for the country’s Golden Age.

The obverse depicts the Dutch Maiden riding her triumphal chariot, drawn by the Dutch Lion. Holding the caduceus beneath radiant rays of light, she symbolizes the peace and prosperity brought by the Pax Hispano-Batava.

The reverse bears a Latin inscription celebrating the restoration of peace and expressing the hope for lasting security and tranquility throughout the Christian world.

PCGS graded this medal MS62, a remarkably high grade for a large silver medal struck in the 17th century. Examples preserved at this level are rarely encountered.

A historic medal commemorating the birth of the Dutch Republic as an independent nation.

A true beauty from the late 19th century.

This 1889 Netherlands 25 Cents of King William III is one of those rare coins where exceptional preservation meets stunning natural rainbow toning. Delicate shades of gold, magenta, violet and soft blue dance across the surfaces, changing beautifully with every angle of the light.

Some coins are rare. Others are beautiful. Every once in a while, both come together in a single piece.

A true beauty. ✨

Gold Ducat Utrecht 1742

For over two centuries, the Dutch gold ducat was the dollar of its day. Merchants from Amsterdam to Constantinople trusted it. The VOC used it to buy spices in Batavia. Ottoman traders accepted it without question. Even Peter the Great of Russia stockpiled them.

Why? Because the Dutch Republic minted them to an unwavering standard: 3.494 grams of .986 fine gold. No debasement, no shortcuts. In an era when kings routinely clipped and debased their coinage, that reliability was worth everything.

This 1742 ducat circulated at the tail end of that golden era — when Amsterdam was still the financial capital of the world, and this tiny coin was its purest expression of trust.

Not power, not politics — just 3.494 grams of gold you could always count on.

After more than two decades in numismatics, a new chapter begins.

Jongeling Numismatic Auctions is a boutique numismatic auction house focused on carefully curated auctions of exceptional numismatic material.

The inaugural auction is planned for March 2027 and will set the tone for everything that follows.

Consignments are welcome whether already certified or not. Every coin selected for the inaugural auction will be certified by PCGS, with the sale exclusively featuring coins graded MS61 and higher.

Every consignment, every catalogue and every auction will be guided by the same principles that have shaped my work over the past two decades, expertise, integrity, personal service and an uncompromising commitment to quality.

I look forward to sharing the journey ahead over the coming months and would like to thank everyone who has placed their trust in me throughout the years. This new venture would not have been possible without your confidence and support.

In 1578, Amsterdam remained one of the last major cities in Holland loyal to King Philip II of Spain during the Dutch Revolt. As a result, the city became increasingly isolated by the rebel provinces, causing a severe shortage of circulating coinage.

To keep trade and daily commerce alive, emergency coins were struck from melted church silver, including precious objects from the Nieuwe Kerk and other Amsterdam churches.

This impressive square 20 Stuivers, catalogued as Delmonte 185, belongs to the earliest emission of these emergency issues. It bears the distinctive “solder pot” mintmark above the city arms. Although this mark has been known to numismatists for more than a century, the mintmaster or silversmith behind it has never been identified with certainty, adding an intriguing mystery to one of the most historically significant Dutch emergency coinages.

A remarkable survivor from a pivotal moment in the Dutch Revolt, preserving nearly 450 years of history.

Gold ducat, West Friesland, 1637. Certified NGC MS 61.

Struck at the height of the Dutch Golden Age, this ducat carries the familiar image of the armored knight, sword and arrow bundle in hand, symbolizing the unity and strength of the young Republic. The reverse legend, referring to the confederated provinces, is a quiet reminder of how coinage carried political weight far beyond its gold content.

What makes this piece stand out is its rarity. Very few examples of this type survive, and an NGC MS 61 grade puts this one firmly among the finest known.

Diameter: 22mm
Reference: Delm. 836, Vanhoudt 1286
Price: €2,250
