| Reverse description | The crowned coat of arms of Philip II is superimposed at the center of an elaborately rendered Burgundian cross, the arms of which terminate in decorative finials. Two firesteels with pendant sparks flank the shield on either side, emblems of the Order of the Golden Fleece and the Burgundian dynastic tradition. The circumferential Latin legend is distributed around the periphery of the reverse field. A beaded border frames the entire design. |
