Terbalik: 10 FLORIJN, down: JE MAINTIENDRAI,
The motto ‘Je Maintiendrai’ (I will maintain) has been the motto of the House of Orange-Nassau since the time of William of Orange. He adopted the coat of arms of his cousin René de Chalon, changing the motto ‘Je maintiendrai Chalon’ into ‘Je maintiendray Nassau’. Later the word ‘Nassau’ was omitted. In 1815 King Willem I incorporated this motto into the royal arms.

In a letter of January 1565, Prince William of Orange explained the significance of the motto:

‘Je maintiendrai la vertu et noblesse.
Je maintiendrai de mon nom la haultesse.
Je maintiendrai l’honneur, la foy, la loy
de Dieu, du Roy, de mes amys et moy.’

(I will maintain virtue and nobility.
I will maintain the prestige of my name.
I will maintain the honour, the faith and the law
Of God and the King, of my friends and of myself.)
