Reverse description A boldly rendered double-headed Imperial eagle displayed in the field, with wings spread and each head crowned, bearing an orb or shield on its breast representing the Holy Roman Empire. The eagle is surrounded by a beaded inner border, with the date 1606 incorporated into the circumferential Latin legend. The outer legend reads IMP ARCH CAM ET EL ECT DVX PRVSS 1606, denoting Joachim Frederick's Imperial offices as Arch-Chamberlain, Elector, and Duke of Prussia. The hammered execution imparts a characteristically bold, slightly irregular relief to the Imperial device.
