<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Choucas, post: 6548319, member: 100117&quot;]Nice coin! Philip II reign is very interesting, a lot of things happened in the low countries under his rule.</p><p>It allows me to share one of the coins I cherish the most in my collection.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1262596[/ATTACH]</p><p><b>Philip II, Brabant - Filipsdaalder (Antwerpen, 1590)</b></p><p><u>Obv.</u> : PHS D G HISP Z REX DVX BRA</p><p><u>Rev.</u> : DOMINVS MIHI ADIVTOR (Le Seigneur est mon aide)</p><p>34,05g / 43mm</p><p>Mintage : 667.323</p><p><br /></p><p>One of the coins I wanted since I started to have interest in &quot;older belgian coins&quot;. I could afford this one in october/november 2019. It&#039;s not going to leave my collection anytime soon.</p><p>Maybe one day I will be able to get another coin of him I really want : an ecu or 1/2 &quot;states&quot; ecu.</p><p>Notice the golden fleece on his chest (even though it almost looks like a maggot) and at the bottom of the coat of arms on the reverse. Also, when this one was issued he was also king of Portugal, so the small shield of Portugal appears on the reverse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
