Fair use rationale for Image:Dutch 5 cent.jpg
[edit]Image:Dutch 5 cent.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Stuivers worth
[edit]Stuiver wasn't small coin.
It was pegged with silver content of one Polish Zloty. From 1667 till 1768 Polish Zloty was known as Timph/Tymph. Surpluses from trade circulated in Netherlands under that name.
First: One Duit was a pretty penny: Mint from natural unrefined copper, with silver and gold content. It weight some grams and was worth of effort. (Why to rafine natural copper before use.)
So it would go:
Guilder: 2 Stuivers,
Florin: 2.8 Stuivers
Daalder: 3 Stuivers (Daalder: one łut Tallar)
Rijksdaalder: 5 Stuivers (Rijksdaalder: one ounce Tallar)
But not: Guilder - 20; Florin - 28; Daalder - 30; Rijksdaalder - 50;
Ducat - 5-8-10 pieces
Timph coin: ~31 mm diameter, ~1 mm across. Look similar to any Tallar pieces. Those are popular pieces in numismatic trade. One I have look like 6.5-8.5 gram.
That is important article for Polish history, so I didn't make any changes in it, not in any related articles.
Timph was ONLY big coin of Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth 1667-1768. Ony two small silver pieces worth 1/4 and 1/8 of Timph (Szostak, Trojak), and two small copper pieces worth 1/30 and 1/90 of Timph (1/90 made rumors for being a trash). Timph was however traded much higher than one Stivier inside of Poland-Lithuania borders by land posesors and traded higher than it's silver content - Timph was 'Patriot Coin' minted only 1663-1666 in time of national troubles. Was newer minted by other yr date.
