| Beschrijving keerzijde | Crowned imperial double-headed eagle displayed in the centre of the field, its breast bearing a quartered heraldic shield with the arms of the Duchy of Friedland. The eagle's wings are spread and its two heads face outward, each surmounted by a small crown beneath the larger imperial crown above. The date 1627 appears divided to the left and right of the crown in the upper field. The circumscribed Latin legend SACRI ROMANI IMPERII PRINCEPS runs clockwise around the periphery, separated by stops, within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Wallenstein received the Duchy of Friedland in 1623 as a direct reward for his loyalty to the Habsburgs following the Battle of White Mountain, and his brief minting authority there was as much a political statement as a financial operation. The Friedland coinage was produced during the peak of his military dominance, when he commanded an imperial army of roughly 100,000 men — largely self-financed through his own estates and ruthless extraction from occupied territories.
He was assassinated on Habsburg orders in February 1634, and the duchy was dissolved. The coinage window was narrow, the political circumstances violent, and surviving pieces carry the weight of one of the Thirty Years' War's most dramatic careers.
