Obverse lettering FERDI D G RO VNG BOE DAL CROA ZC REX
Reverse description A large double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the central field, with wings spread and heads flanking a prominent crown above. The eagle's breast bears a quartered shield incorporating the arms of Austria, Castile, León, and Burgundy, reflecting Ferdinand I's dynastic affiliations. A Latin legend surrounds the design, reading INF HISPA ARCHIDVX AVSTRIE DVX BVRG, citing his titles as Infante of Spain, Archduke of Austria, and Duke of Burgundy. The engraving is bold and deeply struck in the characteristic Gothic style of the Tyrolean workshop. The hammered flan shows natural irregularity at the edges consistent with mid-sixteenth century production.
