| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse bears a four-line Latin inscription in bold, well-spaced lettering occupying the entire field: MARTINVS / LVTHERVS / THEOLOGIÆ / D:, identifying Martin Luther with his title of Doctor of Theology. The lettering is rendered in a period Roman style with characteristic ligatures and abbreviations. A milled or beaded border frames the reverse. The composition is austere and textual, reflecting the Protestant emphasis on the Word over figurative imagery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nuremberg issued this piece in 1617 to mark the centenary of Luther's posting of the Ninety-Five Theses — a politically calculated commemoration in a city that had embraced the Reformation early and officially by 1525. As a free imperial city nominally subject to the Habsburg emperor, publicly celebrating Lutheran doctrine required careful civic maneuvering, and the production of pattern pieces in silver alongside the standard issue reflects the deliberate prestige attached to the occasion.
The Slg. Whiting reference places this among a documented collection of Reformation centenary material, suggesting it was recognized as a collectible from early on rather than a piece intended for general release.
