Wasn’t expecting this

So was just complaining to my wife how I wasn’t having any luck lately. Not even any wheats just clad. Then this popped up later that day. From the Netherlands East Indies or Dutch East Indies known now as Indonesia. Always happy to add another silver to the collection especially a foreign one.

1941 1/4 Gulden

Nice find and congrats on silver! You certainly don't see one of those every day, that coin is a long way from home.

Thanks for the congrats guys, was definitely a surprise to see. Finding stuff I have no clue about is always fun, get to do some research after and learn some things.
Markinswpa. It’s the same size as a US dime and ScaredOfClowns funny you should mention how far from home it is. According to my research the coin has made a round trip. The “P” mint mark says it was born in the US at the Philadelphia mint. I thought that was pretty cool that this coin made its way half way around the world only to return to the US to stay.

Any silver is good, but kinda nice to pull some foreign stuff once in a while
