Obverse description The central field bears an eight-line inscription in relief, rendered in an archaic Dutch script, comprising the tenth stanza of the Wilhelmus (the Dutch national anthem). The text is surrounded by a wreath of laurel branches with leaves and berries, and surmounted at the top by a royal crown in relief.
Obverse script Latin
Obverse lettering Na tsuer sal ick ontfanghen Van Godt mijn Heer dat soet. Daer na so doet verlanghen Mijn Vorstelick ghemoet. Dat is dat ick mach sterven Met eeren in dat Velt. Een eewich Rijck verwerven Als een ghetrouwe Helt.
(Translation: Fear not `t will rain sans ceasing The clouds are bound to part. I bide that sight so pleasing Unto my princely heart, Which is that I with honor Encounter death in war, And meet in heaven my Donor, His faithful warrior.)
