| Obverse description | A standing armored knight in full relief occupies the central field, depicted facing forward, holding a bundle of arrows in his right hand and a sword upright in his left, symbolizing the armed unity of the Dutch provinces. The figure stands upon a decorative base with the date divided on either side of his lower body. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend arranged around the periphery between the beaded circle and the irregular hammered rim. The overall style is characteristic of early Dutch Renaissance coinage, with bold, somewhat crude relief typical of the hammered technique. |
