| Beschrijving voorzijde | Four applied hammer stamps arranged on the plain silver field of this klippe emergency issue. The central stamp bears the Haarlem civic coat of arms, flanked to one side by the arms of Holland; a silversmith's control mark appears at the top, and the date is struck below. The stamps vary by silversmith's mark depending on the assayer, with known varieties including a crescent with star, three stars, a lis, a half lion, and a skull. The overall composition reflects the exigency of wartime production, with each stamp applied individually rather than struck from a unified die. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Haarlem held out against Spanish forces for seven months before surrendering in July 1573, and the siege coinage struck during that blockade represents one of the most documented episodes of necessity minting in the Dutch Revolt. This half daalder was produced by cutting and countermarking available silver — the four stamps authenticating the piece through repeated official validation rather than a single authoritative strike, a workaround born of improvised dies and interrupted supply lines.
The Delmonte S#143a designation places this among the rarer certified siege variants. After capitulation, Spanish commanders executed the garrison.
