| Reverse description | A crowned heraldic shield bearing the complex quartered arms of Philip II of Spain is superimposed upon a saltire (St. Andrew's cross), the whole flanked symmetrically on each side by a firesteel, emblems of the Order of the Golden Fleece and the Burgundian dynasty. Notably, the pendant jewel of the Golden Fleece is absent from the shield, distinguishing this variety from related issues. The design is executed in the characteristically angular, bold style of hammered Netherlands coinage of the period. A circular Latin legend surrounds the entire composition. |
