| Beschrijving keerzijde | A crossed sword and pastoral key in saltire, displayed within a beaded inner circle and surrounded by a Latin legend in Gothic lettering identifying the coin as a new coinage of Dorpat. The sword and key are the heraldic symbols of the Bishopric of Dorpat, rendered in the bold, somewhat crude style typical of hammered billon coinage of the Baltic region in the mid-sixteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Jodokus von der Recke held the Bishopric of Dorpat for barely four years before the see was engulfed in the catastrophe of the Livonian War. This schilling dates to just over a decade before Ivan IV's 1558 invasion effectively ended ecclesiastical coinage in the region altogether. The Bishopric's minting activity was always modest, squeezed between the competing monetary authorities of the Livonian Order and the city of Riga.
The Haljak II reference places this among the rarer episcopal types from Livonia — not because of low original mintage, but through attrition in a territory that changed hands violently and repeatedly.
