| Reverse description | Crowned arms of West Friesland, comprising a quartered shield displaying the provincial lion and ermine lozenges, supported by elaborate Renaissance strapwork and foliate mantling. A royal crown surmounts the shield. The legend surrounding the design reads: MONE ✤ NO ✤ ARG ✤ DOMI ✤ WESTFRISIÆ, identifying the coin as new silver money of the lordship of West Friesland. The composition is rendered in a detailed, high-relief heraldic style characteristic of late sixteenth-century Dutch provincial coinage. |
