Beschrijving voorzijde A swan displayed to the right, wings partly raised, perched atop a rectangular pedestal decorated with a beaded cornice; the face of the pedestal bears the landgrave's interlaced monogram flanked by quartered coat of arms shields. The circumferential legend reads CANDIDE ET CONSTANTER, separated by the date numerals I and VI on either side of the pedestal base. The design is rendered in high relief against a finely milled field, exemplifying late seventeenth-century German medallic artistry.

Aanvullende informatie

Pattern strikes in silver from Hesse-Cassel ducats are survival pieces — produced to test dies or present to court officials rather than for any intended circulation. The landgraviate under Charles I was a minor but financially active state, and the decision to strike ducat dies in silver rather than gold was almost certainly one of cost and convenience, not error.

Schütz IV#1296 is a rare citation, and documented examples of this specific pattern are thin on the ground.
