In 1931 the VOC (Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie) spent 1 Gulden (1G) with the queen Wilhelmina's image engraved on the front of the money. According to a study in the history of this coin made of original silver, if in the nail to penetrate to the bottom of the color of the money remains white. I did not dare to try it because I only have one coin.

Money 1 Guilder engraved queen Wilhelmina is not long circulated in Indonesia, it is said that this money received criticism from the Dutch people. They argue that a queen with loose hair is inappropriate for a queen. Therefore, the Dutch government at that time in Indonesia immediately withdraw the money from the circulation of society. This money was soon circulating to the public, therefore I am very fortunate to have it until now. If friends are curious can meet me to see directly.

Pada tahun 1931 VOC (Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie) mengeluarkan uang 1 Gulden (1G) dengan gambar ratu Wilhelmina yang terukir dibagian depan uang tersebut. Menurut sebuah penilitian dalam sejarah koin ini terbuat asli dari perak, andai di paku sampai tembus hingga ke dasar bagian dalamnya warna uang tersebut tetap putih. Saya tidak berani mencobanya karena saya hanya memiliki satu koin saja.

Uang 1 Gulden yang berukir ratu Wilhelmina ini tidak lama beredar di Indonesia, konon katanya uang ini mendapat kritikan dari rakyat Belanda. Mereka berpendapat bahwa seorang ratu dengan rambut tergerai tak pantas bagi seorang ratu. Oleh sebab itu pemerintah Belanda pada saat itu yang ada di Indonesia langsung menarik uang tersebut dari peredaran masyarakat. Uang ini tak lama beredar pada masyarakat, makanya saya sangat beruntung bisa memilikinya sampai sekarang. Jika teman-teman penasaran bisa menjumpai saya untuk melihat secara langsung.
