| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned arms of Utrecht occupy the center of the field, depicting a rampant lion passant within a shield surmounted by a royal crown. The denomination numerals '2' and 'S' are divided by the shield, appearing to the left and right respectively. The design is rendered in a bold, high-relief heraldic style characteristic of Dutch provincial coinage of the Batavian Republic period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Batavian Republic, proclaimed in 1795 after French Revolutionary forces expelled the Stadtholder Willem V, inherited a monetary system that was a chaotic patchwork of provincial coinages. Utrecht had long maintained its own mint and continued striking under the new republican administration, producing issues like this one during the awkward transitional years before the Batavian currency was meaningfully unified. The low silver fineness reflects deliberate cost-cutting as the new government struggled with war debts and French financial demands.
