| Opschrift voorzijde | INDIÆ BATAVORUM (1802) |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | At center, a shield bearing the rampant lion of Holland is surmounted by an elaborate mural crown, the whole enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The denomination 1/8 G is divided by the shield, with '1/8' to the left and 'G' to the right. The circumferential Latin legend MO · ARG · ORD · FŒD · BELG · HOL, punctuated by dots and a six-pointed star, runs around the outer border, abbreviating the Latin formula for 'Silver coinage of the federated Belgian-Dutch provinces, Holland.' The coin exhibits attractive iridescent toning on the fields. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Batavian Republic was a French client state established in 1795 after Revolutionary forces overran the Dutch Republic, and its coinage reflects the administrative chaos of that arrangement — monetary policy was repeatedly subordinated to French fiscal demands, including forced loans and metal requisitions that disrupted mint output throughout the period. By 1802, the Republic was already drifting toward the more autocratic Batavian Commonwealth that would follow in 1805, with Louis Napoleon's kingdom just three years beyond that.
The 1/8 gulden denomination had a fractional role in daily transactions that larger silver rarely filled. The Scholt II#495c reference places this among a documented variety grouping distinguished by reverse circle configuration.
