Reverse description Large crowned quartered and impaled heraldic shield displaying the complex armorial bearings of the Habsburg-Burgundian territories, including the arms of Austria, Burgundy, Alsace, and Ferrette (Pfirt), flanked by two additional escutcheons. The shield is surmounted by an ornate crown. The circular legend surrounding the shield reads DVX* BVR*LA: ALS:CO: *PHIRT in Latin, referencing Ferdinand's titles as Duke of Burgundy, Landgrave of Alsace, and Count of Pfirt. The heraldic composition is executed in the detailed, formal style characteristic of late sixteenth-century Habsburg coinage.
