What do we pay for a gold 50 euro Netherlands?
Based on the gold rate of this moment, €119.54 per gram of fine material. As of:
| Variant | Fine gold | Total weight | We pay |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 euros | 12.096 g | 13.44 g | €1,417.00 |
This price applies regardless of the year and the mint. With a rare year or exceptional condition the collector’s value can be higher than the material value – then we say so, even if that means you are better off not selling us the coin.
How we arrive at this amount
A coin is precious metal in a recognisable shape. What it fetches therefore depends almost entirely on the fine weight: the weight of pure gold it contains.
This coin is 900‰ (21.6 carat) pure. The rest of the alloy – usually copper – makes it harder and scratch-resistant, but has no value. That is why we calculate on the fine weight and not on what the scales say.
The heaviest Dutch gold euro coin, twice the weight of a tientje. Struck for the birth of Princess Amalia, Queen Beatrix’s jubilee and the inauguration of King Willem-Alexander.
Not sure whether your coin is genuine? We check weight, diameter, thickness and – if in doubt – the density with X-ray analysis. Non-destructive: your coin stays intact.

Two tientjes in one coin
The gold 50 euro weighs 13.44 grams, exactly twice a tientje, and contains 12.096 grams of fine gold. The Royal Dutch Mint struck it for the birth of Princess Amalia, for Queen Beatrix’s silver jubilee in 2005 and for the inauguration of King Willem-Alexander in 2013, each time in a small mintage.
What we pay
We pay on the 12.096 grams of fine gold against the gold rate of the moment. The face value of 50 euros plays no part: the gold is worth many times more.
Because the mintages are small, a piece with case and certificate may interest collectors. The valuer assesses that at the table; we always pay the gold value.
