Beschrijving voorzijde Armored and draped bust of Matthias II facing right, wearing an elaborate imperial crown that stops short of the beaded inner circle. The effigy depicts the ruler with a beard, dressed in ornate armor with a ruff collar, rendered in fine high-relief detail characteristic of early seventeenth-century Habsburg portraiture. The bust is contained within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend running along the outer circumference between the inner and outer rims.

Aanvullende informatie

Matthias II struck these thalers during an extraordinary political moment: he had just forced his brother, Emperor Rudolf II, to cede Austria, Hungary, and Moravia to him through the 1608 Liechtensteiner Kompromiss, a negotiated capitulation unprecedented in Habsburg dynastic history. Rudolf retained Bohemia and the imperial title — for a time — but these coins were Matthias asserting independent authority over his newly acquired lands before he ever held the imperial crown, which wouldn't come until 1612.
