The duit was an old low-value Dutch copper coin. Struck in the 17th and 18th centuries
in the territory of the Dutch Republic, it became an international currency. It had the value of 1/8 stuiver.

The stuiver was a coin used in the Netherlands, worth 1⁄20 Dutch Guilders. It was also minted on the Lower Rhine region and the Dutch colonies. The word can still refer to the 5 euro cent coin, which has almost exactly the same diameter and colour despite being over twice the value of the older coin.
