| Obverse description | Central shield bearing the rampant Lion of the Netherlands, armed and crowned, holding a sword aloft in its right paw and a bundle of arrows in its left, set within a plain escutcheon surmounted by an elaborate royal crown with arched framework and jewelled band. The denomination numerals '3' and 'GL' flank the shield to the left and right respectively, integrated into the field. A circular Latin legend runs along the broad raised rim, separated by pellet stops, reading MO : NO : ARG : FÆD : BELG : ZEEL : 3 G, identifying the coin as the new silver coinage of the Federated Netherlands, province of Zeeland. The flan is notably thick and heavy, consistent with piedfort production at double the standard weight. |
