| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field depicts the Virgin Mary enthroned, shown full-length in a niche or tabernacle setting, holding the Christ Child, flanked by two smaller figures, likely saints, with the date partially visible below. A quartered heraldic shield bearing the Schlick family arms is displayed prominently beneath the central figure. The legend HEINRIC.SCHLICK.COMES.A.PASSAVN encircles the design, identifying Heinrich Schlick as Count of Passau. The overall composition is characteristic of mid-17th century Bohemian hammered thalers, with bold relief and a beaded inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Schlick family were among the earliest and most consequential producers of large silver coinage in the Holy Roman Empire — their mines at Joachimsthal in Bohemia gave the world both the Joachimsthaler and, eventually, the word "dollar" itself. By 1641, however, the family's political and financial position had collapsed almost entirely. The Thirty Years' War had devastated their Bohemian holdings, and this issue represents one of the final gasps of a once-dominant minting house.
Davenport EC II#3404 places it firmly in the late survival period of the Schlick coinage tradition, struck under Heinrich during a two-year window before the line effectively ceased independent production.
