| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features the rampant Guelders lion facing left, depicted in high relief in the late Gothic hammered style, with a distinctive radiate or rayed collar around the neck — the characteristic motif that gave the type its popular name 'Peerdeke' (little horse). The lion stands on a ground line, its tail curled upward. A circular beaded border frames the design, with the abbreviated ducal title legend running continuously around the periphery in uncial Gothic lettering. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles of Egmont spent nearly his entire reign fighting to keep Guelders out of Habsburg hands, a struggle that defined the duchy's final decades as an independent entity. These small billon pieces were struck across that long conflict — funding a duchy perpetually at war, relying on French subsidies and mercenary contracts to stay solvent. The "Peerdeke" nickname, derived from the horse motif, became the coin's popular identity among a population that handled it daily for nearly half a century.
The 46-year emission span almost certainly produced significant die variation, though no comprehensive die study has fully catalogued the series.
