The VOC Geocoin is made in the remembrance of the Vereenigde Oostindische Compagny (Dutch East India Company). The VOC was a chartered company established in 1602, when the States-General of the Netherlands granted it a 21-year monopoly to carry out colonial activities in Asia. It was the first multinational corporation in the world and the first company to issue stock. The Dutch East India Company remained an important trading concern for almost two centuries, paying an 18% annual dividend for almost 200 years.
The front of the coin is an exact copy of a medaillion that was given to Adriaan Bergsma in 1740 as commander of the returning fleet of the Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie. The medaillion shows a VOC-ship with the text 'Societas Indiae Foederat Provinciarum' which means: East India Company of the United Provinces.
