Information
Buy the Golden Ducat 2024
The Royal Dutch Mint annually issues Golden Ducats. This special gold coin of proof quality is struck in 98.3% pure gold, weighs 3.494 grams and has a diameter of 21 mm. In June, the edition will be determined based on the number of Golden Ducats sold. In September, the coins are minted and delivered by the Royal Dutch Mint.
In addition to the single Gold Ducat, a double Gold Ducat has been issued for years. The double version has almost the same design as the single Ducat, except a double line of dots has been added to the obverse of the Gold Ducat.
History of the Golden Ducats
Since 4th August 1586, the Golden Ducat has been in the Dutch Coinage Act in the capacity of trade coin. The Golden Ducat originally came from the Republic of Venice and was later minted in the Netherlands as well. The Golden Ducat has always been a strong coin; for centuries, these coins were an important means of payment in international trade. They had a good reputation because of their reliable weight and content.
In Scandinavia, Poland and Russia they were gladly accepted and also in trade with Asia, the Golden Ducat was frequently used. The Dutch Gold Ducat therefore grew into one of the most important trade coins in the world. The Royal Dutch Mint mints Double and Single Golden Ducats every year on behalf of the Ministry of Finance to keep the memory of the Netherlands' rich trading past alive.

Investment score
A B-rating indicates products that are still widely recognized and tradable worldwide, often issued by reputable mints or refiners. However, the price per gram or spread is generally slightly higher compared to A-rated products. While still suitable for investment purposes, they are not the most cost-efficient option available.
Label informationProducts with an A-rating are among the most commonly traded and liquid options available. These coins and bars offer a strong balance between a competitive price per gram and a low spread, making them well-suited for investors who want to acquire physical gold or silver efficiently. Due to their global recognition, they are typically easy to buy and sell.
Een B-label staat voor producten die wereldwijd goed verhandelbaar zijn en afkomstig zijn van erkende munthuizen of raffinaderijen. De prijs per gram of de spread ligt echter doorgaans iets hoger dan bij A-label producten. Daarmee zijn ze nog steeds geschikt als belegging, maar minder optimaal voor wie puur kijkt naar kostenefficiëntie.
Products with a C-rating are primarily valued for their collectible characteristics. This may include limited editions, unique designs, or historical significance. As a result, their price is often less closely tied to the underlying metal value. These products are typically chosen by collectors rather than investors focused on efficiency.
