Obverse description Half-length frontal effigy of Duke William I of Guelders, crowned with a chaplet of roses and robed in ducal attire, standing within a Gothic architectural canopy. The duke holds a raised sword in his right hand, presented as a symbol of sovereign authority. Below the figure, an escutcheon bearing the quartered arms of Gelre is prominently displayed within the lower arch of the portico. The overall design reflects the Rhenish Florin type, executed in the Gothic style characteristic of late 14th-century Low Countries coinage.
