| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central shield bearing the rampant lion of Utrecht, surmounted by an elaborate crown, with the date 1759 divided to either side of the shield in the field. The peripheral legend runs along the inner border of a finely milled rim, rendered in crisp Latin capital letters. The design is executed in high relief, characteristic of a pattern striking, with well-defined heraldic detail throughout. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Utrecht struck this gold quarter gulden pattern in 1759 as part of broader provincial experimentation with gold coinage denominations that never entered regular production. Patterns of this type were almost certainly produced for presentation rather than circulation — the Dutch provincial minting system of the mid-eighteenth century was politically fragmented enough that any new denomination required consensus among the States-General that rarely came quickly, if at all.
The Delmonte reference places it firmly among the rarer Dutch gold patterns, a category that survives in extremely small numbers precisely because the pieces were never intended to leave controlled hands.
