| Obverse description | Central field depicts an armored knight standing facing, holding a sword upright in the right hand and a bundle of arrows in the left, a heraldic shield bearing a rampant lion at his feet. The figure is rendered in the robust late-Renaissance style typical of Dutch lordship coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the central device, with the Latin legend disposed around the outer periphery. The irregular hammered flan exhibits the characteristic uneven edge of hand-struck sixteenth-century Low Countries coinage. |
