| Reverse description | Central field displays the imperial double-headed eagle of the Holy Roman Empire, with a small orb on the breast, surmounted by an imperial crown above the two heads. The eagle is rendered in the characteristic late Renaissance hammered style with spread wings and foliate detail at the base. The surrounding legend in Roman capitals reads RVDOLPHVS II D G RO IMP SEM AV, identifying the suzerain Rudolf II, Holy Roman Emperor, as overlord authority on the coin. |
