| Obverse description | Central field features a cartouche or shield-shaped inner border enclosing the two-line inscription WOER / DEN in bold relief, identifying the issuing city of Woerden. The inner device is surrounded by a raised beaded circle border that runs parallel to the squared flan's perimeter. The hammered square flan with rounded corners exhibits the characteristic irregular surface texture of emergency or siege coinage. The overall design is stark and utilitarian, reflecting the exigencies of the Dutch Revolt period during which this provisional tin piece was struck. |
