| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a standing draped female allegorical figure in the centre of the field, her right arm raised in an oath-taking gesture, symbolising the homage ceremony. To her left stands a tall Corinthian column, a classical emblem of steadfastness and loyalty. The date 1738 appears in the exergue below the figures. The circumferential Latin legend OBSEQUIUM . IURARE . PARATA — meaning 'prepared to swear obedience' — encircles the design, directly referencing the homage of Badenweiler. The border mirrors the obverse with a beaded inner ring and a reeded outer rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles Frederick — who would later consolidate Baden-Durlach and Baden-Baden into a single margraviate in 1771 — was just eleven years old in 1738, having inherited the title three years earlier under a regency. This ducat commemorates the Huldigung, the formal homage ceremony in which the estates and subjects of Badenweiler swore loyalty to their new ruler. Such occasions regularly generated special strikings distributed to attendees and dignitaries, meaning these pieces saw minimal circulation almost by design.
Wielandt's cataloguing of this type as Baden #666 places it within a well-documented series of Baden homage issues, though surviving examples remain genuinely scarce given the ceremonial rather than monetary purpose of the striking.
