Reverse description The reverse features a five-line Latin inscription contained within an ornate rectangular tablet or cartouche, rendered in a bold serif typeface characteristic of Dutch ducat coinage. The text reads MO:ORD / PROVIN: / FOEDER: / BELG. AD / LEG.IMP., abbreviated from the full Latin phrase Moneta Ordinum Provinciarum Foederatarum Belgii ad Legem Imperii, meaning 'Money of the Federated Provinces of the Low Countries according to Imperial Law.' The cartouche is framed by elaborate foliate and scroll ornamentation, including acanthus-like flourishes at the corners and a decorative cresting element at the top. This reverse design is a direct continuation of the standard Dutch trade ducat type, maintained essentially unchanged for reasons of international commercial acceptance.
