| 表面の説明 | Three applied punch stamps on a plain pewter flan: a central stamp depicting the arms of Zierikzee within a beaded circle, a smaller secondary stamp of the same civic arms within a beaded circle positioned in the upper field, and a third stamp bearing the date within an ornate frame in the lower field (the latter stamp may be absent on some specimens). The stamps are characteristic of hastily produced siege coinage, with irregular placement and variable strike quality typical of emergency issues. |

Zierikzee, a fortified port on the Zeeland island of Schouwen-Duiveland, struck emergency coinage in 1575 under conditions of acute siege. The town was blockaded by Spanish forces during the Eighty Years' War, and the local magistrate authorized pewter noodgeld to keep internal commerce functioning when silver had been hoarded or stripped from circulation entirely. Pewter was the material of last resort — soft, low-value, and wholly unsuited to coinage — which is precisely why most examples were melted or discarded once the crisis passed.
Survivors are accordingly scarce. Gelder records two die variants at 87a and 87b.
