| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a detailed panoramic view of the city of Augsburg as seen from the river Lech, with the skyline dominated by prominent church towers, civic buildings, and fortifications rendered in fine relief. Two winged putti or angels appear in the upper field, holding aloft a ribbon or banderole inscribed CONF. A., a reference to the Confessio Augustana. The date 1730 appears in the lower exergue within a decorative cartouche, with the river depicted in the foreground showing rippling waves and small vessels. The entire composition is enclosed within a milled border, executed in the refined Baroque engraving style characteristic of Augsburg workshop production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Augsburg's 1730 ducat pattern in silver is a trial piece almost certainly produced in connection with the bicentennial celebrations of the Augsburg Confession — the foundational Lutheran doctrinal statement presented to Emperor Charles V on June 25, 1530. The city marked that anniversary with considerable ceremony, and pattern strikings in off-metal were a standard tool for gauging official approval or securing presentation gifts for dignitaries.
KM#Pn12 survives in very small numbers. Whether this piece ever advanced beyond pattern status is unrecorded.
