The royal dutch mint introduces "Schokland Vijfje"
August 17, 2018
The third Dutch commemorative coin of 2018 honours an unique and mysterious place of the Netherlands: 'Schokland'. The former island symbolizes the constant battle with water by the Dutch citizens and is the first World Heritage site in the Netherlands since 1995.
The Dutch public-service broadcaster NTR has produced 10 episodes on Dutch world heritage, one for each world heritage site. Each episode is 15 minutes, and contains a humoristic yet educational perspective on the world heritage sites in the Netherlands. A 23 minutes compilation with English subtitles can be watched here.
