| Obverse description | A crowned standing knight in full armour occupies the central field, facing forward with a bundle of arrows held in his right hand and a shield bearing the rampant lion of Holland at his left side. The figure stands on a small ground line, rendered in the bold, flat relief characteristic of late sixteenth-century Dutch hammered coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the design, with the circular Latin legend VIGILATE DEO CONFIDENTES distributed around the periphery. |
