| Obverse description | Armored draped bust of Philip II facing right, depicted with curly hair and wearing a ruffled collar and articulated plate armor, rendered in a bold, high-relief hammered style typical of mid-16th-century Low Countries coinage. The effigy occupies the central field, with the circumferential Latin legend interrupted at the base. The portrait reflects the influence of contemporary royal portraiture, conveying regal authority befitting the King of Spain and Duke of Guelders. |
