| Beschrijving voorzijde | Double-headed imperial eagle displayed at center, surmounted by a large imperial crown, with a small escutcheon on the breast bearing a horizontal-banded shield; the wings spread broadly in high relief in the late Renaissance manner. The entire device is contained within a raised inner circle, with the circular Latin legend occupying the outer margin and punctuated by pellets as word separators. The treatment of the eagle's plumage and the decorative mantling below the breast shield are characteristic of late 16th-century North Italian die-cutting. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Correggio was a tiny independent county in Emilia, and its late-sixteenth-century thaler coinage exists almost entirely because the ruling Siro I needed hard currency credible enough to trade beyond his borders. The county's political survival depended on maintaining the appearance of a sovereign minting authority even as the Farnese and Este territories pressed in from every side. Siro I received imperial confirmation of his minting rights, which gave these thalers their legal standing in broader German and Italian commercial circuits.
The county was absorbed by Modena in 1635, ending the dynasty entirely. Surviving examples are genuinely scarce — Correggio never had the mint infrastructure to produce at scale.
