| Reverse description | Central composition displaying the seven coats of arms of the United Provinces arranged in a heraldic grouping, representing Gelderland, Flanders, Holland, Zeeland, Utrecht, Friesland, and Overijssel. The date 1595 appears in the upper field above the armorial arrangement. The encircling legend identifies the monetary authority and legal basis of the issue. The die work is characteristic of the hammered coinage produced at the Utrecht mint in the final decade of the sixteenth century, with irregularities in strike consistent with the hand-striking technique. |
