| Beschrijving keerzijde | Quartered heraldic shield of the Duchy of Milan displayed within an ornate Baroque cartouche frame, surmounted by a royal crown. The four quarters bear the arms of Milan: the Visconti biscione (a serpent devouring a child) alternating with the Imperial eagle, all rendered in fine relief consistent with hammer-struck gold coinage. Supporting figures flank the shield on either side as decorative elements of the baroque frame. The circumferential Latin legend MEDIOLANI DVX ET C surrounds the composition, divided by the crowned shield, with a beaded border along the coin's rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Filippo IV — Philip IV of Spain — never set foot in Milan, yet as Duke of Milan he controlled one of the wealthiest and most strategically vital territories in Europe. The 1630 date places this coin squarely in the midst of the Thirty Years' War, during which Milan functioned as the principal Spanish logistical hub for moving troops and silver northward through the "Spanish Road" into the Low Countries. Gold coinage of this type was less a circulating medium than an instrument of credit and military finance.
The Fr#725 attribution in Friedberg is notable for its relative thinness of documentation — surviving examples vary enough in die work to suggest irregular production runs rather than consistent annual output from the Milan zecca.
