| Beschrijving voorzijde | Armored bust of Landgrave Louis IV of Hesse-Marburg facing right, wearing elaborately decorated plate armor with a prominent ruff collar and a chain of office across the chest. The date is divided to either side of the bust within the inner field. A beaded inner circle separates the portrait from the surrounding Latin legend. The engraving reflects the robust Germanic Renaissance style typical of late sixteenth-century Rhenish coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Louis IV of Hessen-Marburg ruled only half a territory — and a contested one at that. When Landgrave Ludwig IV of Hesse-Marburg died in 1604, he controversially willed the Marburg portion of Hesse back to be reunified rather than allowing it to pass to either Hessen-Kassel or Hessen-Darmstadt outright, a decision that sparked the Hessian Succession dispute and drew both lines into protracted legal and eventually military conflict. These thalers, struck in the closing years of his reign, predate that crisis but were issued by a landgrave already maneuvering his territorial legacy.
The multiple Schütz references reflect genuine die variation across the issue, not mere cataloging redundancy.
