Schulman auction in 1957, for 260 Gulden with a further pedigree to the Collection Mak van Waay. Soon after the coronation of Louis Napoleon Bonaparte as king of Holland in June 1806, the first designs of various denominations appeared with the portrait of the ambitious king. The design of the 1807 Gulden of the first type (Sch. 152), depicted an error in the legend “KONINGRIK HOLLAND” and a remarkable denomination of 1. - F. (Florin). After a mintage of only 8 pieces, the error and denomination were corrected., ex collection Vinkenborg
