| Beschrijving keerzijde | The Prussian eagle displayed in bold relief, standing with wings spread and head turned to the right, perched upon a horizontal ground line beneath which rests a laurel branch. The eagle is rendered in a naturalistic neoclassical style with detailed feather engraving. Below the ground line, the date and mint mark appear in the lower field, with the mint letter A incorporated within the date as 17 A 98. No surrounding legend is present; the design fills the field with the eagle as the sole central motif, framed by a reeded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick William III ascended the Prussian throne in November 1797, and this Friedrich d'Or belongs to the brief transitional window before his own coinage types were established — struck in his name but carrying design continuity from the Frederick II-era gold that had defined Prussian currency for decades. The Friedrich d'Or denomination itself dated to Frederick the Great's monetary reforms of 1750, calibrated to compete directly with the Dutch ducat in international trade.
Prussia's mint at Berlin produced these under considerable political tension; Frederick William III inherited a kingdom already unnerved by French Revolutionary expansion across the Rhine.
