Reverse description Noah's Ark afloat on stylized, wave-filled waters, depicted with a rectangular superstructure and a curved hull rendered in fine detail. Above the vessel, multiple storm clouds discharge heavy rain into the turbulent sea, symbolizing divine protection amid tribulation. The circular legend NVLLAS HIC METVIT VNDAS ("It fears no waves here") arcs around the upper field within a beaded border, serving as a Reformed theological allegory. The date 1717 appears in the exergue below, flanked by small ornamental stops. The entire design is struck on a square klippe flan with prominent corner points extending beyond the beaded collar.
