| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central shield bearing the arms of Öttingen, flanked by the date, surmounted by an ornate crested helm featuring a dog's head crest in high relief. The surrounding legend in Latin records the titles and names of the three co-ruling counts of Öttingen. The overall composition reflects the Renaissance heraldic style typical of German territorial coinage of the mid-sixteenth century. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the field, with wings spread and orb or shield at breast, rendered in the bold hammered style characteristic of mid-sixteenth century German thalers. The surrounding legend in Latin records the imperial titles of Holy Roman Emperor Charles V. The eagle's heads are each surmounted by an imperial crown, and the overall design conforms closely to the standard Reichsadler type mandated for contemporary German coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Öttingen was a small Franconian county that spent much of the sixteenth century legally entangled over partition rights among co-ruling counts — a constitutional arrangement common to the Holy Roman Empire but particularly knotted here. Charles Wolfgang, Louis XV, and Martin governed jointly, and this thaler is one of the few coin types issued under all three names simultaneously, making it a direct artifact of that collective sovereignty rather than a dynastic anomaly. The county later split into Öttingen-Wallerstein and Öttingen-Spielberg lines, ensuring these joint issues had no successors.
