Comment
Very accurately imitates the Rose Noble of Edward IV of ENgland (see second link)Interesting fact
The Rozenobel coin from the City of Gorinchem (Dutch Republic) is interesting because it was made of gold and weighed 7.53 grams, which was a significant amount for a circulating coin at that time.
