| Beschrijving voorzijde | Two heraldic shields arranged side by side within an ornate cartouche, flanked by elaborate foliate scrollwork. The dexter shield displays the arms of Schwäbisch Hall with the characteristic hand device, while the sinister shield bears a cross. A laurel wreath frames the entire composition at the periphery, with the milled edge visible beyond. The overall design is executed in a baroque style typical of early eighteenth-century German municipal coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck to commemorate the Treaty of Baden, signed in September 1714, which formally ended the War of the Spanish Succession between France and the Holy Roman Empire. Schwäbisch Hall was among several imperial free cities that issued commemorative fractions marking the peace — a tradition that combined genuine civic relief with an opportunity to demonstrate autonomous minting rights at a moment of imperial visibility.
At 0.87 g in near-fine gold, these quarter ducats saw essentially no circulation. They functioned as presentation pieces and diplomatic tokens rather than trade currency.
