Beschrijving voorzijde A crowned armored knight on horseback prances to the right, brandishing an upraised sword in his right hand. The horse is depicted in a dynamic rearing pose, with fine detail rendered in the mane and trappings. Below the horse, in the lower field, appears the quartered shield of West Friesland, bearing two confronted lions. The circumferential Latin legend is divided by the central device and reads continuously around the coin's edge.

Aanvullende informatie

West Friesland's half ducaton occupied an awkward position in the Dutch federal coinage system — technically regulated by the States-General's 1659 and later tariff ordinances, but in practice struck with enough local variation that examples from different provincial mints traded at slight discounts against one another. The full ducaton, nicknamed the "silver rider" for its equestrian type, was one of the workhorse trade coins of the Dutch Atlantic and Baltic commerce, and the half denomination served domestic circulation rather than export.

The long production window of 1762–1794 ends abruptly: the Batavian Revolution of 1795 dissolved the old provincial administrations entirely, ending West Friesland's independent minting authority.
