Kartonnen omhulsel voor een 18e-eeuwse zilveren dubbele stuiver (munthoes) c. 1780

This cardboard case, created in the late 18th century in the Dutch province of Holland, was designed to hold an 18th-century silver double stuiver coin. The case is a simple, rectangular piece of cardboard with a circular cutout in the center for the coin. It is an example of a utilitarian object, designed for practical use rather than aesthetic display. This case is indicative of the widespread use of coins in 18th-century Dutch society and the need for their protection and preservation.
