| Obverse description | Neptune, nude and triumphant, brandishes his trident over a cowering figure representing Louis XIV, amid crashing waves and seahorses; in the background, a fierce naval engagement is depicted in high relief. The exergue bears a three-line dedicatory inscription to William III, while the circular legend in Latin runs along the upper border of the field. |
