| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned half-length figure of Philip II facing forward within an ornate ship, holding a drawn sword in his right hand and a quartered heraldic shield in his left, the shield bearing the arms of Castile, León, Aragon, and other Habsburgian territories. The vessel is depicted with a decorated hull resting on stylized waves, with rigging and billowing sails flanking the king. A large rose is visible at the bow of the ship, in keeping with the rose noble type. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend running along the outer margin: × PHS × D × G × HISPANIAR × REX × A O × TRANSISL, identifying Philip as King of Spain and lord of Overijssel. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip II authorized a series of rose nobles across the Low Countries provinces during the early 1580s as Spanish fiscal pressure intensified following the Union of Arrechtrecht — but Overijssel's issues occupy a peculiar position in that story. The lordship was actively contested during this window, caught between Spanish authority and the nascent Union of Utrecht, making coin production there both politically charged and administratively fragile. That instability almost certainly accounts for the narrow striking window and the relative scarcity of surviving examples today.
The type follows the English rose noble tradition, itself a prestige denomination format by then over a century old, here pressed into service partly as a statement of Habsbur legitimacy.
