Yes, "The Netherlands" is the English name for our country, "Nederland" is the Dutch (Netherlandish) name for our country.
1G stands for 1 Gulden (Dutch) or 1 Guilder (English)
The Gulden/Guilder was our currency until we got the Euro several years ago and so it was exactly like the US or Canadian Dollar.
The worth back then was most of the time about half a US Dollar.

Oh and by the way, Juliana koningin der Nederlanden, means Juliana, queen of the netherlands. She was queen before the current queen Beatrix.
