1790 VOC N.E. INDIES DUIT NEW YORK PENNY COPPER
1790 VOC Netherlands East Indies Duit New York Penny Copper NGC Genuine
This 1790 VOC Netherlands East Indies Duit is a historic copper coin famously known in American numismatics as the New York Penny due to its circulation in early colonial and post-revolutionary New York. The coin features the iconic VOC monogram of the Dutch East India Company on the reverse above the 1790 date, while the obverse displays the crowned coat of arms of the province of Utrecht. This specific piece has been professionally certified and encapsulated by NGC in a specialty Old New York label holder, graded as Genuine to verify its status as an original 18th-century copper issue. These coins are significant artifacts of global trade and early American commerce, representing a time when foreign currency was essential for daily transactions in the fledgling United States.
1790 VOC Netherlands East Indies Duit Copper New York Penny NGC Genuine
Condition: The item is professionally slabbed and encapsulated by NGC, graded as Genuine. The surfaces exhibit a dark, aged patina consistent with its age, with visible environmental effects and wear on the high points of the design elements. The date 1790 and the VOC monogram remain clearly legible on the reverse, while the coat of arms on the obverse shows moderate circulation wear. The metal content is copper. This business strike coin was minted for the Dutch East India Company (Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie) and historically circulated in the Dutch colonies. These coins are often referred to as New York Pennies due to their historical use as small change in early American commerce, particularly in the former Dutch colony of New Amsterdam.
