1/2 Batzen

正面描述	Crowned imperial double-headed eagle displayed in the field, serving as the civic arms of Isny, with wings spread and talons visible at base. The eagle is rendered in the Gothic style characteristic of early sixteenth-century south German municipal coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device within a beaded inner border, with the date 1508 incorporated at the conclusion of the inscription.

附加信息	Isny im Allgäu held Imperial Free City status from 1365, giving its civic government the right to strike coin — a privilege jealously exercised and occasionally contested by neighboring ecclesiastical authorities. The Batzen denomination itself was a relatively recent innovation in 1508, having emerged from Swiss minting practice in the 1490s and rapidly spreading across southern Germany and the Alpine borderlands as trade demanded a practical silver multiple above the pfennig but below the gulden. The Nau reference spanning numbers 38 through 47 suggests meaningful die variation across the type, worth cross-referencing against Schultze before attributing any single piece.
