| Beschrijving voorzijde | Left-facing bust of Joan of Arc (Johanna) depicted in fine Art Nouveau relief, wearing an ornately decorated helmet with scrollwork and floral motifs, her hair flowing beneath the visor and a draped pauldron visible at the truncation. The portrait is rendered with elegant linear detail characteristic of mid-twentieth century German medallic art. The circumferential legend is divided into two arcs: IOHANNA with a small star separator and the birth year 1412 across the upper field, and GALLIA with the commemorative year 1962 along the right side. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece belongs to a wave of privately issued German gold ducats produced in the late 1950s and early 1960s under the "Aureus Magnus" series — collector-oriented restrike medals struck in ducat-weight gold and deliberately styled to evoke historical coinage without carrying legal tender status. Joan of Arc as a subject on a West German private gold issue is an odd pairing, reflecting the series' broader appetite for pan-European historical figures rather than any numismatic or political logic.
The .980 fineness matches traditional ducat alloy, maintained largely for marketing continuity with historical ducats rather than regulatory requirement.
