Beschrijving keerzijde A spread double-headed imperial eagle with both heads crowned beneath a single overarching crown, its wings displayed and finely detailed with layered feathers visible despite wear. An imperial orb bearing a cross is prominently placed on the eagle's breast, referencing the authority of the Holy Roman Empire. The eagle's body fills the inner field, contained within a beaded circle, with the Latin legend running continuously around the outer border. The denomination of four stuivers is explicitly stated within the reverse legend, a common practice in the feudal coinage of the Spanish Netherlands period.

Aanvullende informatie

Reckheim was a tiny imperial lordship wedged between the Prince-Bishopric of Liège and the Spanish Netherlands — a jurisdictional pocket small enough that its coining rights were perpetually contested. Ernest of Lynden held the lordship from 1603 and exploited those rights aggressively, issuing a range of small silver denominations that frequently drew complaints from neighboring authorities about substandard alloy. The schelling issues attributed to his tenure are accordingly scarce in consistent quality, with surviving examples varying noticeably in silver content.
