| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features a large crowned Gothic letter F, the monogram of Ferdinand of Bavaria, flanked by decorative elements and set upon an ornate shield or cartouche. The monogram is surmounted by a episcopal or princely crown, emphasizing the issuer's dual secular and ecclesiastical authority. A surrounding circular Latin legend reads DV.BV.MAR.FRAN.CO.L, abbreviating Ferdinand's additional titles as Duke of Bouillon, Marquis of Franchemont, and Count of Loos. The reverse shows typical characteristics of hammered copper coinage, with uneven strike and surface patination consistent with prolonged circulation. The overall design follows the standard typology for small copper fractions issued by the Prince-Bishopric of Liège during the first half of the seventeenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ferdinand of Bavaria held the Prince-Bishopric of Liège for nearly four decades, a tenure made possible largely by his family's aggressive accumulation of ecclesiastical offices across the Holy Roman Empire — he simultaneously held Cologne, Münster, Hildesheim, and Paderborn. Small copper issues like this funded the administrative machinery of a territory that was perpetually caught between Spanish Habsburg and Dutch pressure during the Eighty Years' War.
KM#25 spans nearly forty years of production, which complicates precise attribution of individual strikes to specific dates within the reign.
