| Obverse description | Central field displays the crowned arms of Zwolle: a quartered shield bearing a cross, surmounted by an elaborate crown. The denomination numeral '1' appears to the left of the shield within the field. A circular Latin legend reading DEVS · REFVGIVM · NOST surrounds the central device, accompanied by the date 1599, all enclosed within a beaded inner border. The strike is characteristic of late 16th-century Dutch hammered coinage, with some weakness at the periphery typical of the technique. |
