| Beschrijving voorzijde | A fully armored knight on horseback occupies the central field, depicted in dynamic right-facing motion with sword raised aloft in the right hand, the horse shown rearing with forelegs raised. The Provincial arms of West Friesland — a crowned shield bearing three horizontal bars — appear below the horse in the lower field. The circumferential Latin legend reads continuously around the periphery, separated by stops, with the provincial attribution abbreviated in standard Dutch Republican fashion. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
West Friesland's ducatons were struck under the looser fiscal oversight of the individual Dutch provincial mints, and the States of West Friesland exploited this repeatedly — producing ducatons well into the 1790s even as the Republic's political structure was collapsing around them. Large quantities of Silver Riders from multiple Dutch provinces were exported throughout the eighteenth century to the Levant trade and the East Indies, where Dutch silver enjoyed a trusted reputation that outlasted the VOC itself.
The Delmonte reference remains the authoritative guide for distinguishing die marriages within this type; Ver#62.1 narrows the attribution to West Friesland specifically, separating it from the superficially similar Utrecht and Gelderland issues that circulated alongside it.
