Dutch Rider Geocoin

A rider (rijder) was the name of an old Dutch currency. It was made in silver or gold. It was named after the horseman on the coin (rider, of in dutch: rijder).

Design

The geocoin is round shaped and has a size of 1.75″ (approx. 44 mm).  The Dutch Rider Geocoin is designed after a 1754 Dutch coin called the Rijder (Rider), a monetary coin that was made in silver or in gold. The front of the coin is an exact copy of the 1754 Dutch coin called the "Rijder". The image of the horseman was already used in the century before. The latin motto ‘Mo No Arg Con Foe Belg Pro Hol’ on the front means: New Silver Coin of the Belgium Federation (a.k.a. Republic of the Seven Provinces), province of Holland.
The 3D lion image on the back was also used on several Dutch coins and often came with the same motto. The motto ‘Concordia Res Parvae Crescunt’ on the back means: The little ones grow through unity.

Beim Geocoinfest Europe 2015 Netherlands in eindhovenhttp://coord.info/GC5E266 gab es natürlich jede Menge Geocoins zu bestaunen. Die meisten waren allerdings unaktiviert und sollten gekauft oder getauscht werden. Die imposante Sammlung von Geo-Dragonchild hat es mir besonders angetan - wirklich tolle Coins!!! Das eine oder andere Schmuckstück würde auch gut in meine Sammlung passen! ;-)
Vielen Dank für's Zeigen beim Geocoinfest und die Möglichkeit zu discovern!
Dane auch für die ganzen Icons!
Viele Grüße aus Dortmund,

I had the chance to see the Geo-Dragonchild's collection at the 2015 Geocoinfest in Eindhoven. And since he kindly sent me the tracking codes, I am even able to log them as "discovered". It was my first geocoinfest, and even though the geocoins form part of every event, the amount of geocoins at the geocoinfest was immense. There was no way to see them all, so I just strolled along the stands and looked here and there what might be interesting. Besides the coins, I also liked the sunny weather, the lab caches around and the overall atmosphere. What amused me a little bit was the beer, since it was really small (I think 0,2l).
Thanks for sharing the collection with the geocaching community & happy geocaching!
