| Reverse description | A crowned double-headed imperial eagle with spread wings dominates the reverse field, displaying an orb on the breast shield. The imperial crown divides the surrounding Latin legend, which identifies the reigning Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II. The design follows the standard imperial eagle type employed on gold gulden coinage of the German imperial cities during the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, reflecting Zwolle's status as a free imperial city under Habsburg suzerainty. |
