| Beschrijving keerzijde | Imperial double-headed eagle displayed with wings spread, each head surmounted by a separate crown and both crowned together by a large imperial crown above. The eagle's breast bears a quartered shield of the Habsburg hereditary arms. The date 1607 appears divided at the top of the field flanking the central crown. The circumferential legend reads ARCHID AVST DVX BVR MA MO, running clockwise within a beaded inner border, recording Rudolf's titles as Archduke of Austria, Duke of Burgundy, Margrave of Moravia. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Joachimsthal — today's Jáchymov in the Czech Republic — was the mint that gave the world the word "dollar," its name contracted through "Joachimsthaler" into common currency across Europe and eventually the Americas. By 1607, the mines that had made the town famous in the 1520s were running thinner, but the mint remained politically important to Rudolf II, whose court at Prague depended on Bohemian silver revenues to fund his increasingly erratic rule and his obsessive patronage of alchemists and astronomers.
Rudolf's authority over Bohemia was effectively stripped by his brother Matthias in 1608, making issues from the tail end of this date range — 1609 and 1610 — products of a sovereign already deposed in all but title.
