| Reverse description | The crowned quartered arms of Philip II of Spain occupy the central field, displaying the composite heraldic shield incorporating the quarterings of Castile, León, Aragon, and Granada, with the Guelders escutcheon at the base. The shield is surmounted by an imperial crown of elaborate design. The circumferential legend PHS · D · G · HISP · Z · REX · DVX · GEL runs within a beaded border, identifying Philip as King of the Spains and Duke of Guelders. The entire design is executed in the characteristic bold relief of sixteenth-century Netherlandish hammered coinage. |
