| Reverse description | The reverse displays a five-line Latin inscription on a square tablet set within an ornate baroque cartouche or frame, conveying the monetary authority and legal standard of the coinage. Beneath the frame appear the arms of Amsterdam, serving as the mint mark of the Amsterdam mint. The inscription abbreviates the full legend identifying the coin as gold coinage of the Confederate Belgian Provinces issued according to imperial law. The baroque framing of the tablet is characteristic of Dutch provincial ducat coinage of the late seventeenth century. |
