背面描述	Full-length frontal figure of Saint Rudbertus (Rupert of Salzburg), patron saint of the archbishopric, seated on a throne and vested in full episcopal regalia including mitre, cope, and alb. He holds a crozier in his left hand and raises his right hand in benediction. The figure is rendered in high relief with detailed drapery folds. A beaded inner border separates the central device from the surrounding Latin legend, which includes the date at the top of the coin.

附加信息	Paris von Lodron was elected Archbishop of Salzburg in 1619 and almost immediately faced the catastrophe of the Thirty Years' War engulfing the surrounding territories. Salzburg itself managed to stay out of direct military conflict under his long rule, a feat of careful neutrality that lasted until his death in 1653 — making his archbishopric one of the most politically stable in the German-speaking world during that century. The fractional thaler issues of this period served genuine small-denomination commerce in a region whose silver came largely from the Gastein and Rauris mining valleys. Zöttl documents four varieties across the emission, distinguishable by subtle differences in the die work.
