I managed to assemble a complete province set of Netherlands 2 stuivers of the 1600's from dealers' junk boxes, but that was more than 30 years ago.
The Duits are an interesting series also, and can include Netherlands East Indies (Indonesia). They were probably an easier set to do in Australia, due to the nearness of Indonseia, and that some contemporary Dutch currency of 1700's and 1800's was for a time declared legal tender in early British Colonial Australia.
Those are indeed easier to collect. I love to find the cities. Like Zwolle, Groningen & Zaltbommel. Tomorrow I'm going metal detect again. Hope to find something nice :)
