Reverse description A fully-rigged Dutch sailing vessel is depicted in profile, sailing to the right with sails set and flags flying from the masts, rendered in fine detail characteristic of the scheepjesschelling type. A figure, likely a sailor or helmsman, is visible on deck to the right. The date appears in the upper field above the ship, within the circumferential legend. The peripheral Latin motto, reading VIGILATE DEO CONFIDENTES ('Be watchful, trusting in God'), encircles the entire design and reflects the maritime and religious identity of the Dutch Republic.
