| Beschrijving voorzijde | Displayed imperial eagle with spread wings and crowned head facing forward, set within a beaded inner circle. The eagle bears a shield on its breast and is rendered in the bold, angular style characteristic of mid-16th century German coinage. A crown surmounts the eagle's head. The circular Latin legend surrounding the device reads: MONETA NOVA CIVITATIS IMPE TREMO, identifying this as a new coin of the Imperial City of Dortmund. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Dortmund's status as a Free Imperial City gave it minting rights that most German towns simply didn't have, and the city exercised that right jealously through the sixteenth century. By 1564, Dortmund was already in economic decline relative to rising Rhenish and Hanseatic competitors, making issues from this period historically thin on the ground — the city's mint was not prolific, and surviving thalers from this decade turn up rarely outside specialist collections or major auction houses.
Davenport's German Talers reference places this squarely within a small run of municipal issues that predates Dortmund's eventual loss of practical minting activity later in the century.
