| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned coat of arms of the Utrecht province is centrally displayed, featuring the rampant lion of Holland within a shield surmounted by an elaborate royal crown. The date is divided by the shield, with '18' to the left and '08' to the right within the field. A continuous Latin legend surrounds the design along the outer periphery, reading partially inverted at the base as was customary for this type. The overall composition follows the traditional Dutch rijksdaalder format retained under the Kingdom of Holland. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Louis Bonaparte was installed as King of Holland by his brother Napoleon in June 1806, a appointment Louis neither requested nor particularly wanted. He proved an awkward vassal — genuinely attempting to govern in Dutch interests rather than French ones, which eventually led Napoleon to annex the Netherlands outright in 1810. This coin falls squarely in that uneasy interregnum, issued by a man trying to legitimize a throne he held at his brother's pleasure.
The Rijksdaalder denomination had deep roots in Dutch monetary tradition, and retaining it was a conscious concession to local custom. Scholt differentiates three die marriages across the 1806–1808 span.
