Recently we had an opportunity to spend $60,500 on the special set of the Netherlands coins. They were sold in the XIX Triton auction by CNG (Dr. Lawrence A. Adams Collection):

1. Middelburg 1573 klippe ducat – sold for $16,940 (incl. BP)
2. Middelburg 1574 klippe ducat (a commemorative piece) – sold for $13,310 (incl. BP)
3. Amsterdam 1673 piedfort ducat – sold for $15,730 (incl. BP)
4. Utrecht 1684 ducat with the Batavia c/m – sold for $14,520 (incl. BP)

Over $60,000 for 4 coins?! Yes, the Netherlands gold ducats have got potential.
