Sneek, a town in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands, minted silver coins in its own name from around 1470 to 1492.
These were imitations of coin types from the city of Groningen. In 1498, Duke Albrecht of Saxony, as hereditary governor of
Friesland (1498–1500), opened a mint in Sneek which probably operated for about a year and a half.
