| Beschrijving keerzijde | Crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed, with wings spread and heads facing outward, occupying the full central field. A crown surmounts the eagle at the top of the design, rendered in bold hammered relief characteristic of mid-sixteenth-century Low Countries coinage. The date 1568 appears within the legend at the top of the coin. A beaded inner border frames the eagle, with the Latin imperial titulature of Maximilian II inscribed in the outer legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Maximilian of Berghes served as Archbishop of Cambrai from 1556 until his death in 1570, presiding over a diocese caught between Spanish Habsburgs and the growing Calvinist revolt in the Low Countries. His coinage was struck during the opening years of the Duke of Alba's brutal campaign to suppress the rebellion — a period when the traditional monetary autonomy of ecclesiastical lordships was already coming under sustained pressure from Philip II's centralizing administration.
Delmonte's "S" prefix indicates a supplement listing, suggesting this type was documented outside the main sequence — likely due to rarity or late discovery of the variety.
