Beschrijving voorzijde Within a beaded inner circle, a shield bearing crossed sword and key in saltire, the sword pointing to the lower left and the key to the upper right. The shield is set within a circular field enclosed by a legend running along the outer rim. The inscription is largely degraded and crudely rendered, consistent with late-period provincial hammered coinage. The date numerals '56' appear within the legend, representing an abbreviated form of the full year 1556 or used as a die for the 1558 issue.

Aanvullende informatie

The Bishopric of Dorpat — a Catholic ecclesiastical state centered on present-day Tartu in Estonia — was effectively finished by 1558. The Livonian War had begun the previous year when Ivan IV's forces invaded, and the bishopric's last bishop, Hermann II Wesel, was captured by Russian troops in 1558 itself. This schilling was struck in the final months of a collapsing polity, which explains the extreme rarity of the type; Haljak lists very few surviving examples across all grades.
