| Reverse description | Crowned heraldic shield bearing the quartered arms of Old and New Burgundy, superimposed at center by a small escutcheon of the arms of Guelders. The entire composition is encircled by the linked chain of the Order of the Golden Fleece, with the order's jewel — the fleece pendant — suspended at the base of the chain. The crown above the shield is rendered in a Gothic style characteristic of late sixteenth-century Low Countries hammered coinage. A circumferential Latin legend runs around the outer field within a beaded border. |
