| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays an elaborate floriated cross occupying the full field, its four arms terminating in ornate foliate scrollwork and floral bosses rendered in the Renaissance decorative style typical of Netherlandish hammered gold coinage of the period. Small rosette or lis ornaments serve as word separators within the circumferential Latin legend. The date 1577 is divided by the mint mark of the Utrecht mint, with the numerals 15 appearing to the left and 77 to the right of the mark at the centre of the coin. The outer border is formed by a continuous inner beaded circle, framing the legend neatly against the hammered flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Dubbele Statengulden emerges directly from the chaos of the early Dutch Revolt. Utrecht had joined the Union of Brussels in 1577, the same year this coin was struck, as the northern provinces scrambled to assert collective authority against Spanish Habsburg rule. Provincial coinage was as much a political act as an economic one — minting in the name of the States rather than Philip II was a deliberate repudiation of crown authority.
Delmonte lists this type as genuinely scarce, with surviving examples spread thinly across Dutch institutional collections.
