| Beschrijving voorzijde | A boldly rendered lion rampant facing right, standing on a ground line, occupying the central field in the heraldic tradition of the Brabant lion. The date 1790 is inscribed in the exergue below the ground line, flanked by dots. The circular Latin legend DOMINI·EST·REGNVM· runs around the upper periphery, interrupted by the lion's figure, with the coin struck within a finely toothed border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The 1790 Brabant Revolution — the short-lived Brabantine revolt that briefly expelled Austrian Habsburg authority and declared the United Belgian States — generated an urgent need for independent coinage. The insurgent government struck this type to assert fiscal legitimacy during the interregnum between Joseph II's administration and Leopold II's reconquest, which came before year's end. The rebellion collapsed in December 1790 when Habsburg forces re-entered Brussels essentially unopposed.
The dual denomination — sols for French-speaking provinces, stuivers for Flemish — reflects the awkward political coalition holding the revolt together.
