Beschrijving voorzijde Draped armored bust of Philip II, King of Spain, facing right, wearing a ruffled collar and pauldron, rendered in bold relief in the Renaissance portrait style. The date appears below the bust, divided by the mint mark. The peripheral legend in Latin reads PHS D G HISP ANG Z REX DVX BRA[B], identifying the monarch as Philip, by the grace of God, King of Spain and England, Duke of Brabant. The legend is separated from the inner field by a beaded border. The overall style is consistent with mid-sixteenth-century Netherlandish coinage die work.

Aanvullende informatie

Philip II inherited the Seventeen Provinces from his father Charles V in 1555, but unlike Charles — who was born in Ghent and spoke Flemish — Philip never set foot in the Low Countries after 1559, governing instead from Madrid through a succession of governors-general. The daalder series from Brabant in these early years of his reign reflects the mint's attempt to produce a large silver coin competitive with the German Reichsthaler flooding regional trade routes.

The Antwerp and Maastricht mint marks covered by the Vanhoudt references place this issue at a moment just before the Duke of Alba's arrival and the monetary disruptions of the Dutch Revolt.
