Reverse description Within a beaded inner circle, a crowned shield bearing the rampant lion of Holland occupies the central field, the heraldic beast depicted facing left with raised forepaw in a dynamic posture. The shield is surmounted by a broad arched crown with ornamentation. The surrounding Latin legend DNS · MICHI · ADIVTOR, meaning 'The Lord is my helper,' runs along the outer margin between the inner and outer beaded borders. The overall style is consistent with small hammered billon coinage of the Spanish Netherlands under Philip II.
