Part 8 "De Munten der leenen van de voormalige hertogdommen Braband en Limburg, " 1862

and also

Delmonte S# 772 "Le Benelux d'argent" 1967

our friend corrado26 is correct, my compliments Sir ! see also the golden Ducat

FYI: Maria and Jesus are always in the abbey's coins present as you can see form this example being also by Margeretha van Brederode. 1/2 Daalder or 12 Stuivers not dated but approx. 1557-1564
Coat of arms clearly the Brederode

Looks like the lion of Brabant?
