| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central scene depicting the Adoration of the Magi, rendered in high relief within a recessed circular field. The Virgin Mary is shown kneeling at left, presenting the Christ Child, while the three Magi approach from the right bearing gifts, with architectural and celestial elements framing the composition. A Latin legend encircles the scene within a beaded border, running continuously around the periphery of the coin. The design reflects the devotional baroque artistic style characteristic of ecclesiastical coinage from the Bishopric of Münster under Ferdinand of Bayern. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ferdinand of Bavaria held the Bishopric of Münster from 1612 until his death in 1650, simultaneously occupying several other ecclesiastical seats including Cologne, Liège, Hildesheim, and Paderborn — an accumulation of office that made him one of the most politically powerful churchmen in the Holy Roman Empire. This thaler was struck in 1647, two years into the Congress of Westphalia negotiations that would end the Thirty Years' War, a conflict Ferdinand had navigated with characteristic caution, generally aligning with Habsburg interests while keeping Münster from the worst of the devastation.
The Dav CCT#5596 reference places this piece within Davenport's corpus of German church talers, a classification reflecting Münster's minting activity under Ferdinand across multiple decades.
