| Beschrijving keerzijde | The entire reverse field is occupied by a thirteen-line Latin funerary inscription set within a radiate sunburst background, recording the birth, marriage, and death of Maria Amalia, Landgravine of Hesse-Cassel. The text commemorates her descent from the ducal house of Courland, her birth on 13 June 1653, her marriage to Landgrave Charles on 21 May 1673, and her death at Villemomble on 16 June 1711. The Roman numeral date MDCCXI appears in the final line, and the inscription is enclosed within a milled border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Maria Amalia of Courland, wife of Landgrave Charles of Hesse-Cassel, died in April 1711. Memorial thalers of this type were a well-established practice among German princes — grief made public through silver, distributed to court and nobility as a mark of dynastic mourning. The specific Schütz and Davenport references here place this firmly within the documented struck series rather than later cast commemoratives, which is a meaningful distinction for survivors of this type.
