| Obverse description | Central shield bearing the arms of West Friesland — three golden lions passant on a field — surmounted by an ornate crown, with the denomination '2 G' flanking the lower portion of the shield. The circumferential legend runs around the central device within a beaded border, all struck on a square klippe flan rotated 45 degrees to produce a diamond orientation. The shield and crown are rendered in bold relief characteristic of Dutch provincial hammered coinage of the late seventeenth century. |
