 Detailed Description
West India Company were the first European settlers on the island of Manhattan, where they circulated the company's own minted currency. Now you can own one of the oldest coins to exchange hands during the colonial and revolutionary years of America! This one-duit coin, nicknamed the "New York Penny," was used as currency long after the Dutch relinquished control of the island to the British - when New Amsterdam became New York. Arrives in a handsome history folder with a certificate of authenticity. 11"x 7½" folder.
