Here's a sneaky little sailing ship photobombing a coin.

The coin is a 2003 Netherlands 20 Euro Cent, portrait of Queen Beatrix, first map reverse, KM# 238, Schon #121, N# 149. Here are the obverse and reverse photos:

So . . . where is the ship? Here it is! It's the mark of Maarten Theodoor Brouwer, Mint Master, Royal Dutch Mint (2003-2015). The sails are visible, but the rest of the ship must be presumed to be just over the horizon.
