Off-metal strike in gold.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design, with an image of a crowned lion holding a shield with the Gelderland coat of arms, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. The lion is depicted in a standing position, giving the impression of power and strength. This design was meant to symbolize the wealth and prosperity of the Province of Gelderland during that time.
