| Obverse lettering | FERDIN D G ARC AVSTRIÆ |
| Reverse description | Central crowned quartered coat of arms displaying the composite heraldic achievements of the Habsburg territories, flanked on the left by the eagle shield of Austria and on the right by a shield bearing a lion, all set within a beaded inner circle. The multi-quarter shield incorporates the arms of Austria, Burgundy, and other affiliated dominions, surmounted by an archducal crown. The circumferential legend in Latin, divided across the field, reads DVX BVR LA ALS CO FER, abbreviating Ferdinand's titles as Duke of Burgundy, Landgrave of Alsace, and Count of Ferrette. The heraldic composition is executed in the robust hammered style typical of late sixteenth-century Tyrolean coinage. |
