| Obverse description | Divided shield bearing the quartered coat of arms of Hoorne at right (three hunting horns) and a floral device at left. A circular Latin legend occupies the upper portion of the shield, with the inscription WEERT appearing prominently in the field. The overall style is consistent with mid-sixteenth-century Low Countries seigneurial coinage produced by hammering. |
