| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a seven-line commemorative inscription entirely in the field, reading PRIMI / REGNI PRUSS / HAERERDIS / CONIUGIUM / FELIX / 28 NOV / 1706, with the mintmaster's initials HFH below, all within a reeded border. Three decorative stars appear at the top of the inscription above the first line. The bold, upright Roman lettering fills the flan in a compact arrangement typical of early Prussian commemorative ducats. The composition records the happy marriage of the first heir to the Kingdom of Prussia on 28 November 1706. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick I had himself crowned King in Prussia in 1701 — a carefully stage-managed act at Königsberg, outside Habsburg jurisdiction, since the imperial diet would never have sanctioned a royal title within the Empire's borders. This half ducat commemorates his marriage, likely issued across the date range as a presentation or court piece rather than circulating currency. Hohenzollern dynastic gift coinage of this period was distributed at weddings and baptisms as largesse, and survivorship reflects that: these saw far more cabinet drawers than pockets.
