5€ 2012 of NETHERLANDS

 New commemorative coins 2012: het Tulpen Vijfje

New commemorative coin 2012: The Tulip Five
Commissioned by the Ministry of Finance, in 2012 the Royal Dutch Mint will be striking a new commemorative coin with the theme: 400 year diplomatic trade relations between the Netherlands and Turkey. The First Strike of the coin will take place on the 26th of March 2012.

The first trading links between the Netherlands and Turkey stem from the Middle Ages, when the Dutch, usually when journeying to the Holy Land, visited Turkey as a pilgrim or on a crusade. The first Dutch ambassador, Cornelis Haga, arrived in Istanbul in 1612, and diplomatic relations were established.The trade between Turkey and the Netherlands started to flourish by that time. In the sixteenth century the Tulip was exported from Turkey to Europe, which lead to the Tulipmania in the Netherlands and eventually the tulip became a national symbol.

The front of the coin will show a portrait of Queen Beatrix along with a luxuriant flowering tulip as the national symbol. On the back a closed tulip can be seen in combination with the Turkish flag, as a metaphorical image of the tulip’s native country. A limited number of the Silver Proof coins will also have colour printing. This coin will form part of an exclusive set.


The circulation coin, packaged in a coin card, will be available from PostNL and Post Office branches in the Netherlands.

In addition to the circulation coin, the Royal Dutch Mint is also issuing special releases for collectors. Below you can read more about these special qualities
