| Reversbeschreibung | Central quartered heraldic shield bearing the arms of Guelders and Jülich, flanked on either side by rampant lions serving as supporters. The shield is ornately rendered with elaborate foliate or strapwork mantling surrounding it. The circular marginal legend EQVITA IVDICIA TVA DOMIN, a biblical invocation meaning 'Justice is your Judgement, O Lord', runs around the periphery of the coin. The overall composition is typical of late medieval Low Countries coinage, with bold, deeply struck heraldic imagery occupying the majority of the reverse field. |

Charles of Egmont spent the better part of his reign fighting — against the Habsburgs specifically, refusing to cede Guelders despite sustained military and diplomatic pressure from Maximilian I and later Charles V. The snaphaan was struck in this climate of active resistance, functioning as much as a political declaration of continued independence as a medium of exchange. Roermond was one of his principal mints during this period.
Charles held out until 1538, when the Treaty of Venlo finally transferred Guelders to Habsburg control — the year this coinage type ceased.
