Comment

CNM and Krause identify three subtypes based on the symbol beginning/ending the legend:
- Ornate (Guelders) cross obverse 1606-1631 (main photos) (KM#16.1, CNM 2.17.121)
- Lily obverse and reverse 1643-1653 (KM#16.2, CNM 2.17.122)


- Sitting dog obverse and reverse 1652-1659 (KM#16.3, CNM 2.17.122)


Muntalmanak also identifies a 1699 coin, but Krause states that this coin has a higher silver amount (.885).

Interesting fact
