| Beschrijving keerzijde | Saint Rupert, patron of Salzburg, depicted full-length and facing, attired in episcopal vestments including a mitre upon his head and a flowing cope. In his left hand he holds a salt box, the emblem of his association with the salt trade of Salzburg, while his right hand bears a crozier. The figure is rendered in a frontal, hieratic manner consistent with the devotional iconographic tradition of the period. A continuous Latin legend encircles the design within a beaded inner border, identifying the saint and his see. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Michael von Kuenburg served as Archbishop of Salzburg from 1554 until his death in 1560, presiding over a diocese caught between Lutheran pressure from the surrounding nobility and Rome's demands for Counter-Reformation compliance. His tenure was short and politically uncomfortable. The half-guldiner issues struck under his name drew on Salzburg's substantial silver resources from the Alpine mining operations that had made the archbishopric one of the wealthiest ecclesiastical territories in the Reich — wealth that underwrote both his coinage and his precarious political independence.
