The coin's obverse side features an image of a rose, which symbolizes the Dutch Republic, while the reverse side features an image of a noble, which represents the new monarchy. This coin is a rare and valuable example of numismatic history, offering a glimpse into the political and social changes that took place in the Dutch Republic during the 17th century.
