| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two patron saints of Salzburg depicted facing one another in full-length figure: Saint Rupert at left, vested in episcopal robes and holding a saltcellar, and Saint Virgil at right, similarly attired and holding a crozier; between them at the base, an architectural element representing a cathedral or church facade is rendered in fine relief. Both saints wear mitres and are shown in a formal, frontal-facing devotional composition typical of Counter-Reformation ecclesiastical coinage. The circular Latin legend naming both saints runs around the periphery within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Georg von Kuenburg served as Archbishop of Salzburg from 1586 until his death later that same year — one of the shortest episcopates in the see's history. This half thaler was struck during those few months, which accounts for the type's relative scarcity. Salzburg's mint was among the most active in the Holy Roman Empire, fed directly by the silver extracted from the Gastein and Rauris valleys, but Kuenburg's tenure was simply too brief to generate meaningful volume.
