| Reverse description | Central tablet bearing a four-line Latin inscription within an ornate decorative frame, with the denomination numeral above and the date 1590 below. The motto proclaims the ideals of liberty, a reflection of the turbulent political climate of the Dutch Revolt period. The inscription is divided across the four lines with deliberate spacing, a common stylistic convention of the era. The overall design is austere and text-focused, typical of minor copper coinage of the Spanish Netherlands period. |
