Reverse description Central field bears a finely detailed depiction of a three-masted Dutch sailing vessel under full rigging, shown broadside upon stylized waves, with pennants and flags at the mastheads — the iconic 'scheepje' (little ship) design that gives this type its popular name. The ship's hull, ratlines, and yards are rendered with considerable engraving detail characteristic of the Utrecht provincial mint's early eighteenth-century output. The circumferential Latin legend VIGILATE DEO CONFIDENTES encircles the design, separated by stops, running along the toothed border. No exergue line is present, with the waves occupying the lower field directly.
