| Beschrijving voorzijde | Standing full-length figure of Saint Philip, nimbate, facing forward in hieratic pose at center of the field. The saint holds a cross-tipped staff in his right hand and the Gospels in his left, rendered in the late Gothic style characteristic of Burgundian-Netherlandish coinage. The surrounding legend is set between two beaded or linear borders, written in uncial Latin characters. The overall composition reflects the devotional imagery common to Burgundian gold coinage of the late fifteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip the Handsome's gulden was struck under his authority as Count of Holland during the period when the Burgundian Netherlands were navigating the fraught regency following Maximilian I's release from Bruges captivity in 1488. Philip, barely a teenager when he assumed nominal rule, was surrounded by competing Flemish and Habsburg factions each attempting to shape monetary policy in their favor. The Saint Philip type reflects an assertion of Burgundian dynastic identity at a moment when that identity was genuinely contested.
Philip died in Castile in 1506 at age 28, making his entire coinage output compressed into roughly a decade of active rule.
