Beschrijving keerzijde Quartered heraldic shield displaying the arms of the Duchy of Münsterberg-Oels, incorporating the Piast eagle of Silesia and the checky field associated with the County of Glatz, flanked by two smaller subsidiary escutcheons. The date is split across the field, with '15' visible to the left and '63' to the right of the central shield. The composition is characteristic of Silesian ducal heraldic coinage of the mid-16th century, executed in a bold hammered relief. The surrounding Latin legend MONETA.AVRE.NOVA.REICHENSTE identifies this as a new gold coinage of Reichenstein. A beaded inner circle separates the central device from the circumferential inscription.

Aanvullende informatie

Münsterberg-Oels was a Silesian duchy held by a cadet branch of the Podiebrad dynasty — themselves descended from the Hussite king George of Bohemia. John (Johann) ruled this small territory under Habsbur suzerainty, and ducats of his reign are among the most obscure issues of Silesian feudal coinage. The two-year window reflected in the dating suggests these were struck across a fiscal or calendar year boundary rather than representing two distinct emissions.

Freiherr references place this among the rarest class of Silesian gold; Koppmann's numbering confirms only a handful of documented specimens.
