Description from the seller

Mint: Zaltbommel
Ruler: Philip the Fair under the regency of Maximilian of Austria
Currency: Major
Minted: n.d. (1483 - 1485)
Rarity: R2
Material: 25.0% silver
m = 2.26 g
d = 22.0 mm

VZ: Gothic letter M within a four-sided frame
RS: ✥MONARCHIDVC'*AVЄ*BG*'GЄ
KZ: Flowered cross
RS: ✥BЄNЄDIC*AIA*'MЄA*DOMIN

This coin was minted during a very turbulent period when both the House of Burgundy and the House of Egmond laid claim to Guelders. During the minority of Philip the Fair, it was minted briefly in Zaltbommel. Coins from this period are rare. According to my information, this coin has not been auctioned in this quality or better in the last 10 years.

The edge lettering is completely legible. I believe the quality is VF. However, the quality is subject to personal assessment. See the photos for a good impression.
