Dutch Republic. Dordrecht. 1607. Silver jeton warning against the Spanish peace proposals.
Obverse: Mercury presenting the protective herb moly to Odysseus. Above the figures: MOLY.
Legend: MENTEMQVE MANVMQVE — “Both mind and hand.”
A rose appears in the legend.
Reverse: An armoured soldier holding a sword and shield cautiously accepts an olive branch offered by a hand emerging from the right.
Legend: NON TEMERE FALLITVR NON FIDENS — “He who does not trust is not easily deceived.”
Below: S · C.
The numeral letters in the surrounding legend form the chronogram 1607.
The classical scene recalls the herb given to Odysseus to protect him against Circe’s enchantments. Together with the soldier’s guarded acceptance of the olive branch, it conveys distrust of apparently peaceful intentions.
The jeton belongs to the negotiations preceding the Twelve Years’ Truce. The Rijksmuseum records the type as struck at Dordrecht on the authority of the States General.
References: Dugniolle 3624; Van Loon II, p. 34; Tas 394.
