Beschrijving keerzijde The Dutch Maiden (Leo Belgicus personified as a standing female figure) depicted facing, leaning with her left arm upon a column topped with an open Bible, and holding in her right hand an upright spear surmounted by the Phrygian liberty cap, a traditional symbol of Dutch republican freedom. The figure is rendered in a classical baroque style typical of late 17th-century Dutch coinage. The date 1696 appears in the lower field, with the Latin legend divided around the periphery within a beaded border.

Aanvullende informatie

Piedforts — struck at double or greater thickness on standard dies — were produced primarily as presentation pieces, proofs of die quality, or gifts to visiting dignitaries, never intended for circulation. West Friesland's provincial mint operated with considerable autonomy under the Dutch Republic, and such luxury strikes were one of the few areas where it could distinguish its output from the other six provincial mints striking near-identical coinage.

The Delmonte reference places this among a small group of documented survivors; S#1147a is rarely encountered outside major specialist auctions.
