| Beschrijving keerzijde | The Prussian eagle displayed with wings spread, rendered in bold relief at the centre of the field, its head turned to the right and surmounted by a royal crown. The breast of the eagle bears the royal cypher FR (Fridericus Rex) beneath a further crown, executed in an ornate interlaced monogram. The eagle's talons clutch a sword to the left and an orb to the right, emblems of temporal sovereignty. The date 1703 is divided across the field to either side of the eagle's body, with the mintmaster's initials C·S· positioned at the base. The encircling legend MONETA ARGENTEA REGNI BORUSSICI identifies the coin as silver coinage of the Kingdom of Prussia. |

Frederick I assumed the Prussian kingship in January 1701 after personally crowning himself at Königsberg — a deliberate snub to the Holy Roman Emperor, who refused to perform the ceremony. The Berlin Mint's thaler issues from the years immediately following that coronation served the practical function of broadcasting the new royal title across every transaction in the kingdom. Prussia was not yet the military colossus it would become; these early thalers circulated in a realm still consolidating its identity as a sovereign monarchy rather than an Electorate.
The Davenport and Olding references place this among the earliest standardized thaler strikes of the reign.
