| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central shield bearing the Arms of Zeeland — a rampant lion over a field of water waves — surmounted by a floral imperial crown, with a crossed sword and bundle of arrows behind the shield. The denomination '1/2' appears to the left of the shield and 'GL' to the right, dividing the value across the field. A circular Latin legend runs along the periphery, separated by dots, within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Zeeland maintained its own provincial coinage authority well into the eighteenth century, a jealously guarded right that the Dutch Republic's decentralized structure allowed each province to exploit. This half gulden was struck at a moment when the Republic's financial dominance was already fading — the era of Amsterdam's unchallenged commercial supremacy had peaked, and provincial mints were producing silver issues partly to assert continued relevance. Zeeland's coastal economy, built on trade and fishing rather than finance, gave the province little reason to defer to Holland on monetary matters.
The Delmonte "ter" suffix in the reference indicates a die variety documented after the primary census — typically a later discovery with limited confirmed examples.
