| Reverse description | A central crowned shield bearing the Zeeland arms is surrounded by six smaller shields arranged in a circular composition, each representing one of the principal cities of the province: Middelburg (top), Zierikzee, Goes, Tholen, Vlissingen, and Veere (clockwise), with the family arms of the premier nobleman at the center. Flanking ribbon-like ornamental devices and denomination numerals frame the heraldic assemblage. The full Latin legend runs along the periphery, interrupted by decorative floral rosette stops, and the date 1687 is prominently incorporated into the inscription. The reverse exhibits the elaborate multi-shield heraldic layout characteristic of Zeeland provincial coinage of this era. |
