| Obverse description | Crowned and armored bust of Philip II facing right, depicted with a short beard and wearing an elaborately draped ruffled collar and plate armor, the effigy rendered in the bold, high-relief style characteristic of mid-16th-century Netherlandish hammered gold coinage. An ornate royal crown surmounts the head. The Latin legend encircles the bust within a beaded border, referencing Philip's titles as King of Spain and England and Duke of Gelderland. |
