Reverse description The reverse bears a five-line Latin inscription arranged in bold, widely-spaced capital letters across the central field: AD / USUM / FŒDERATI / BELGII / followed by the date 1790 on a sixth line. A small Brussels mint mark (angel's head) appears below the date in the lower field. The inscription, meaning 'For the use of the Federated Belgium,' directly references the short-lived United States of Belgium proclaimed during the Brabant Revolution. The layout is clean and legible, with no peripheral legend, giving the reverse a stark, declarative character befitting its political context.
