A detailed oval map of the County of Holland original: "Comitatus Hollandia" oriented with West at the top. The map is enclosed within a rectangular frame featuring elaborate floral and scrollwork ornamentation in the corners. The map shows coastal features, rivers, and major towns. To the left (South) is the "ZUIDERZEE". To the right (North) is the "GERMAN OCEAN" original: "OCEANUS GERMANICUS", also labeled in Dutch as "The North Sea". A decorative cartouche in the upper right contains the title "County of HOLLAND". Text at the top reads "With privilege". Latitude and longitude markings surround the oval map border.
