| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped and armored bust of Philip II facing left, rendered in low relief in the typical hammered style of the late sixteenth century. The effigy displays curled hair and a ruffled collar above pauldron armor, occupying the central field. A circular beaded border frames the design, with the Latin legend distributed around the periphery. The portrait, though somewhat crudely struck as is characteristic of this series, conveys the sovereign's authority through its commanding placement within the flan. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The quartered shield of Austria-Burgundy, combining the horizontal bars of Austria with the diagonal stripes and lion of Burgundy-Hainaut, surmounted by an arched royal crown with prominent central arch and fleur-de-lis finials. The shield occupies the central field and is rendered in a bold, though irregularly struck, hammered style. A beaded border encloses the design, with the truncated Latin devotional legend distributed around the periphery of the flan. |

Philip II's grip on the Spanish Netherlands was fracturing badly by the early 1580s. The Union of Arras had nominally kept Hainaut loyal to the Crown, but maintaining a functioning monetary system across rebellious provinces required issuing subsidiary copper coinage at the local level — a messy, decentralized process that produced significant variation between mint sessions. Hainaut's half liard issues from this window show documented die inconsistencies across the GH#233 series, which Vanhoudt's classification partially addresses but does not fully resolve.
The 1582–1586 bracket corresponds directly with the Duke of Parma's military campaigns to reconquer the southern provinces.
