Beschrijving voorzijde 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.

Beschrijving keerzijde A boldly rendered rampant lion passant occupies the central field, facing right with raised forepaw and flowing mane, rendered in the typical Low Countries leeuwendaalder tradition. The figure is set against a plain field within a beaded inner border. The Latin motto legend encircles the device in the outer ring, with the date 1577 incorporated into the legend at the top. The hammered flan shows the slightly irregular outline characteristic of hand-struck silver coinage of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

Batenburg's leeuwendaalders of 1577–78 were struck under Herman Dirk van Bronckhorst-Batenburg during a period when the barony was effectively operating as an independent mint exploiting the political fragmentation of the early Dutch Revolt. The type deliberately imitated the successful leeuwendaalder coinage spreading across the Netherlands, allowing Batenburg to profit from seigniorage while the Spanish administration's grip on monetary control collapsed in the region.

Batenburg's output was small and the barony's minting rights were never fully regularized, which contributes to the rarity of attributed pieces today. Delmonte's S#559 designation places it among the more obscure provincial variants of the type.
