| Obverse description | Crowned municipal arms of Amsterdam displayed in the central field, with a privy mark positioned above the shield. The date 1578 and the denomination expressed in Roman numerals (XX) are stamped below the arms. The design is characteristic of siege coinage, struck on a square klippe flan with clipped corners, exhibiting the rudimentary engraving typical of emergency issues produced under wartime conditions. |
