The Philipsdaalder was authorized by Philip II's government in the Spanish Netherlands as part of a broader effort to rationalize the monetary system across the seventeen provinces — an effort that ultimately produced more varieties than uniformity. Overijssel, a lordship with its own minting rights, struck this issue relatively early in the series, and the 1562 date places it before the political crisis of the following decade made such cooperative monetary arrangements untenable.
The GH#210.17a attribution distinguishes it within a type notorious for die variation and inconsistent provincial execution. Delmonte's classification of this piece as S#48 confirms the standard module for the lordship's output.
