| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bears a crowned heraldic shield displaying the quartered arms of Austria, Burgundy, and Flanders, with supporters visible on either side, consistent with the dynastic arms of the Spanish Habsburg rulers of the Low Countries. The shield is surmounted by an archducal crown. The surrounding Latin legend reads ARCH AVST. DVC. BVRG. Z. CO[M]. FL[A]., abbreviating the titles Archduke of Austria, Duke of Burgundy, and Count of Flanders. The overall composition is characteristic of Southern Netherlandish hammered copper coinage of the early seventeenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Albert and Isabella governed the Spanish Netherlands as sovereign archdukes following Philip II's deliberate transfer of the territory in 1598 — a politically motivated grant intended to give the provinces a nominally independent Catholic rulership while keeping them within the Habsburg orbit. The copper denier issues of this period reflect a broader monetary reorganization they undertook after inheriting a currency system badly disrupted by decades of revolt and Spanish military occupation.
Vanhoudt's attribution to Bruges (the BG suffix) places this among the civic mint issues rather than the central provincial authority.
