| Beschrijving keerzijde | A crowned shield bearing the arms of Overijssel — a rampant lion passant — occupies the central field, rendered in bold relief with a royal crown surmounting the escutcheon. The peripheral legend VIGILATE ET ORATE ('Watch and Pray') encircles the design, consistent with the provincial motto. The composition is symmetrical and typical of Dutch provincial coinage of the mid-eighteenth century. |

Overijssel's duit coinage of 1766–67 falls squarely within the political twilight of Willem V's stadtholderate, a period when provincial minting authority was exercised with considerable independence from The Hague. The "small bust" variety distinguishes this emission from earlier Overijssel duits and is a recognized die variant cataloged under HPM#OV73 — not a casual collector distinction but a documented difference in the punch used for the obverse portrait.
Dutch provincial copper coinage of this decade circulated extensively into the American colonies, where chronic small-denomination coin shortages made any reliable copper welcome regardless of origin.
