| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a beaded inner circle, the griffin passant to left — the heraldic symbol of the City of Rostock — rendered in bold relief with wings raised, claws extended, and tail curled. The date appears at the commencement of the circumferential Latin legend, which runs continuously around the border within a plain outer rim. The design is characteristic of late 16th-century German municipal coinage, with strong, well-defined die work. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rostock's civic thalers of the 1580s were struck at a moment when the city was navigating the competing pressures of its Hanseatic obligations and the growing financial demands of the Danish crown, which claimed suzerainty over the region. The right to mint full thalers — rather than smaller divisionary coinage — was itself a marker of the city's retained autonomy, and Rostock jealously guarded it.
Davenport's Germanic Talers reference places this type within a cluster of north German civic issues that modern collectors frequently undervalue relative to princely coinages of identical weight and fineness.
