Vlaardingen, a mint in Holland (the county of Holland), is a modern-day municipality in the province of South Holland, the
Netherlands, where during the reign of Floris II (1091–1121), so-called ‘light coins’ weighing approximately 0.6 g were minted,
bearing the mint mark FLARDIGA. During the Second World War, the municipality of Vlaardingen had two issues of emergency banknotes
printed, dated 11 and 16 May 1940, but neither was put into circulation. The first issue was called ‘emergency means of payment
for breadwinners’, the second ‘emergency means of payment’.
