Reverse description Central shield bearing the arms of Zeeland: a rampant lion emerging from horizontal wavy lines representing the sea, symbolizing the province's motto and its struggle against the waters. The shield is surmounted by a count's coronet and flanked by ornamental scrollwork. The date 1669 is divided on either side of the crown at the top of the field. The encircling Latin legend reads LVCTOR · ET · EMERGO, the celebrated Zeeland provincial motto meaning 'I struggle and I emerge,' separated by stops.
