| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large crowned Imperial double-headed eagle displayed in the field, its two heads facing outward and surmounted by a single imperial crown, with wings spread and tail feathers rendered in fine detail typical of hammered coinage of the period. The design identifies the coin as struck in the name of Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian II. The circular Latin legend surrounds the eagle along the rim, with pellet stops separating the abbreviated titulature. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Abbey of Thorn was an Imperial Abbey of canonesses in the Lower Meuse region — a sovereign ecclesiastical institution that held the right to strike coin under the authority of the Holy Roman Emperor. This half daalder was issued in the name of Maximilian II, who held the imperial throne from 1564 until his death in 1576, a period during which many small imperial territories exercised minting rights that were increasingly contested by territorial princes. Thorn's output was never large, and its coinages from this period survive in genuinely small numbers.
The Delmonte and van der Chijs references remain the standard authorities for Low Countries ecclesiastical issues of this type.
