| Beschrijving voorzijde | A crowned king stands facing within a ship, holding a sword in his right hand and a shield emblazoned with a lion rampant in his left. The ship's hull and rigging are rendered in fine detail characteristic of the Flemish rose noble type. Flanking shields bearing heraldic devices appear to either side of the central figure. A beaded inner circle frames the design, with the Latin legend arranged around the periphery reading MON · AVREA · METROPOL · GANDA · FLAND ·, identifying this as a gold coin of the metropolis of Ghent in Flanders. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Groningen's city authorities countermarked foreign gold as a practical response to the monetary chaos of the Dutch Revolt — Spanish disruption of normal trade routes and mint supplies forced northern cities to validate and re-circulate whatever coinage was available rather than strike fresh. The English Rose Noble, by then an older denomination, was among the foreign gold deemed trustworthy enough to receive official sanction for local use.
KM# 11.1 distinguishes this as one of several countermark varieties applied by Groningen during this period, the specific punch placement being the primary differentiator between catalog numbers.
