1 Ducat - Rudolf II

正面描述	Full-length armored effigy of Emperor Rudolf II standing facing right, the date divided to either side of the figure. The emperor wears an imperial crown and full plate armor, holding an upright sword over his right shoulder and a globus cruciger in his left hand, symbols of imperial sovereignty. The figure is rendered in the late Renaissance hammered style typical of Holy Roman Empire ducats of the period. The design is contained within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend disposed around the periphery.

附加信息	Deventer held a precarious position during the Dutch Revolt — occupied by Spanish forces under Parma in 1587 after a notorious betrayal by the English governor Sir William Stanley, then retaken by the Dutch in 1591. These ducats were struck under the nominal authority of Rudolf II, whose portrait appeared on the coinage of countless cities he had little practical control over. The city's right to strike gold was a commercial necessity in a region where trade demanded hard currency that Spanish-controlled mints could no longer reliably supply. The Delmonte reference places this among the rarer municipal gold issues of the northern Netherlands.
