| Reverse description | An armoured knight on horseback advancing to the right, his right arm raised and brandishing a drawn sword. The horse is depicted in full stride. The encircling Latin legend runs along the periphery, with the mint mark positioned at the conclusion of the inscription. The design follows the standard type of the Dutch 'rijderschelling' (rider schelling) as issued by the Province of Utrecht, rendered in the vigorous but somewhat coarse style typical of hammered provincial coinage of this period. |
