Beschrijving voorzijde Central field displays the crowned quartered shield of Austria-Burgundy, combining the arms of Austria and the Duchy of Burgundy, set within a cusped octolobe border. The crown surmounting the shield is rendered in Gothic style typical of late 15th-century Burgundian coinage. A circular legend in Gothic uncial characters surrounds the entire design, separated from the inner octolobe by a beaded border. The shield's quarters show the distinctive horizontal bars of Austria and the fleur-de-lis arrangement of Burgundy. The overall composition reflects the heraldic grandeur associated with the Habsburgs' claim to the Low Countries.

Aanvullende informatie

Philip's brief direct governance of Holland in the 1490s followed years of regency administration after his mother Mary of Burgundy's death in 1482, when he was just four years old. The county's coinage during this window reflects the administrative consolidation of the Burgundian Netherlands under a single heir — Philip was simultaneously lord of seventeen provinces, and standardizing small silver denominations across them was a persistent, largely unsuccessful project throughout his reign.

The GH#119-6b designation distinguishes this among several closely related die variants documented for this issue.
