Erasmus


Issuance year - 2011, January

The 500th anniversary of the publication of the world-famous book "Laus Stultitiae" by the Dutch philosopher, humanist and theologian Desiderus Erasmus

The last of the 5 commemorative coins that Miguel from Madrid, Spain, sent me in our last swap.
This is not a good image of this original coin that shows Erasmus writing his book on the right and the effigy of Queen Beatrix on the left. The two images are separated by the vertical inscription "Beatrix Koningin der Nederlanden".


Issuing volume: 4.000.000
