This small, 16th century bronze coin, created by an anonymous artist, depicts Philip II, King of Spain. The obverse side shows the king's portrait in profile, while the reverse displays a scene of Philip II seated on a throne, surrounded by figures representing the Council of Finance. This coin, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the powerful imagery used to represent royalty and authority during the Spanish Golden Age.
