Obverse description Draped bust of Philip II facing left, depicted with a short beard and wearing an elaborate ruffled collar and armour, occupying the central field. The effigy is rendered in the Renaissance portrait style characteristic of Habsburg Low Countries coinage of the mid-sixteenth century. A circular Latin legend surrounds the bust, separated by pellet stops, reading PHS · D · G · HISP · REX · D · TRS · ISSV, identifying Philip as King of Spain and Lord of Overijssel. The coin exhibits the irregular flan and somewhat shallow strike typical of hammered silver production. A beaded border frames the design at the rim.
