Beschrijving voorzijde Central shield bearing the arms of Nijmegen — a double-headed eagle displayed with an inescutcheon on its breast — surmounted by an elaborate civic crown. The denomination numerals '3' and 'G' flank the shield to left and right respectively, indicating the value of three gulden. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device within a beaded border, the whole composition executed in the bold relief characteristic of late seventeenth-century Dutch municipal hammered coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Nijmegen held unusual minting privileges among Dutch Republic cities, a right fiercely defended long after the Union of Utrecht had consolidated most coinage authority toward the provincial mints. This 3 Gulden piece was struck in the years immediately following the 1678 Peace of Nijmegen — the treaties that ended the Franco-Dutch War and briefly made the city the diplomatic center of Europe. Whether civic pride or economic opportunism drove the continued independent output is difficult to separate.

The Dav EC II attribution places this squarely among the large silver issues catalogued for the period, a denomination that saw inconsistent production across Dutch civic mints and was effectively obsolete within a generation as standardization pressure mounted from the States General.
