| Beschrijving keerzijde | Double-headed imperial eagle displayed, with both heads crowned and bearing a central imperial orb on its breast, representing the authority of the Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II. The eagle's wings are spread and finely detailed, occupying the full field in the manner typical of Thaler coinage of the period. A beaded inner circle encloses the device, and the Latin legend naming Emperor Ferdinand II with his regnal titles runs continuously around the periphery, incorporating the date 1621 within the legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Montfort-Peggau was a minor Swabian comital line that had already begun fragmenting through inheritance partitions by the early seventeenth century. This 1621 issue reflects the joint rule of Hugh XIII and John VII — a co-lordship arrangement that was itself a product of those divisions, the two counts governing together rather than splitting territories further. The Thirty Years' War had entered its third year by this point, and the financial pressures on small imperial lordships to produce silver coinage were considerable, often outpacing their actual bullion reserves.
The county's absorption into Habsburg-controlled territories came within a generation of this strike.
