The shield is surmounted by an imperial crown. The entire device is set within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin motto legend and the Roman numeral date MCCCC LXXXVII (1487) running around the periphery between two beaded borders, referencing the maxim 'Hold to measure and consider the end.' |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Philip the Handsome was just nine years old in 1487, with his aunt Maximilian of Austria serving as regent following the death of Mary of Burgundy six years earlier. The political situation in the Low Countries was genuinely unstable — Maximilian himself had been briefly imprisoned by the citizens of Bruges in 1488, just one year after this coin was struck. Holland's continued minting of high-denomination gold under the regency was as much a statement of administrative continuity as it was practical commerce.
At nearly 15 grams of near-pure gold, this is one of the heavier Burgundian Netherlands issues. The type is scarce in any condition; surviving examples predominantly come from old Dutch and Belgian collections assembled before the Second World War.
