Obverse description Within a beaded inner circle, a large Gothic letter P surmounted by an elaborate crown occupies the central field, with the denomination value divided to either side of the letter. The surrounding legend, rendered in Latin, runs along the outer margin and reads D : G · HISP · REX · DO · TRS · ISSVL III M, identifying Philip II as King of Spain by the grace of God and Lord of Overijssel. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan and weak strike typical of hammered billon issues of this period.
