Step back into the dawn of American numismatics with this captivating 1790 Dutch East India Company (VOC) N.E. Indies Duit, famously repurposed as one of the earliest "New York Pennies." Struck in copper during the late colonial era, this coin was countermarked with a bold "V" by New York merchants to serve as local tender amid the scarcity of official U.S. coinage post-Revolution. The obverse displays the iconic VOC ship under full sail, symbolizing Dutch maritime prowess, while the reverse features the intricate lion of the United Provinces. Housed in a secure NGC Genuine holder (certification #8675022-474) with an "Old New York" pedigree insert, this piece guarantees authenticity and showcases honest wear from genuine circulation in the bustling streets of early Manhattan. A must-have for colonial token enthusiasts, early American history buffs, or anyone seeking a tangible link to the birth of U.S. currency—complete with subtle toning that enhances its historical allure.
