1729 Utrecht Dutch Gold Ducat NGC MS62 Vliegenthart (Flying Heart) Shipwreck

Description: Discover a piece of Dutch maritime history with this 1729 Utrecht Gold Ducat, certified by NGC MS62 Salvaged from the fabled Vliegenthart (Flying Heart) shipwreck, this lustrous coin is a testament to the wealth and craftsmanship of the Dutch Golden Age. Embrace the legacy of Dutch seafaring with this coin from the depths of the sea. The 1729 Utrecht Gold Ducat is a remarkable representation of Dutch numismatic artistry and the country's seafaring legacy. Struck in the historic city of Utrecht, this coin was once a symbol of wealth and trade during the Dutch Golden Age. The ducat features a knight with a bundle of arrows in one hand, symbolizing the unity of the provinces, and a sword in the other, representing military readiness. The reverse displays an ornately inscribed inscription within a geometric quadrilobe, indicative of the meticulous craftsmanship of the era. Gold ducats of this type were widely used for international trade, reflecting the Netherlands' economic power. The choice of gold, sourced from the trade networks that spanned from the New World to Africa, highlights its importance as a reliable and valuable currency. This specific coin, having been part of the treasure aboard the Vliegenthart, adds a layer of history and intrigue. The Vliegenthart, a Dutch East India Company ship, met its end on a fateful night in 1735, sinking with a fortune that lay untouched until its discovery in 1982. These coins were struck to help the Dutch East India Company establish trade markets in the East Indies and soon became one of the worlds most respected trade coins. Featuring a knight in armor on one side surrounded by the motto 'Through harmony small things increase' and an inscription on the other side which reads 'Gold money of the United Provinces of the Netherlands and their imperial law', the design remained unchanged from ruler to ruler.All gold Ducats recovered from the Vliegenthart are dated 1729. They never entered circulation, and because gold does not corrode, they appear almost exactly the same as the day they were struck even after 250 years in sea water.
