| Obverse description | A standing armored knight occupies the center of the field, facing left in three-quarter view, wearing a plumed helmet, full plate armor, and a gorget. The knight holds an upright sword in his right hand and rests his left hand upon the crowned shield of Zeeland, displaying a rampant lion over barry wavy, emblematic of the province's maritime character. The figure stands on a small ground line, rendered in fine relief with careful attention to the articulation of armor plates. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, reading continuously around the coin's circumference. |
