| Beschrijving voorzijde | St. George in full armour astride a rearing horse to right, thrusting a lance downward to slay a dragon prostrate beneath the horse's hooves. The heraldic shield of Mansfeld appears at lower left and a second armorial shield at lower right, flanking the central equestrian group. A crested helmet or shield device is visible at the top of the field. The peripheral legend, rendered in Latin, runs around the coin within a beaded border, identifying the three co-ruling counts of Mansfeld-Friedeburg. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mansfeld was one of the most prolific copper- and silver-mining territories in the Holy Roman Empire, and the counts' right to strike coinage was directly tied to their control of the Mansfeld mines — among the most productive in sixteenth-century Germany. The joint-reign thalers issued under Peter Ernest I, Christoph II, and John Hoyer III reflect the fractional inheritance system that repeatedly split Mansfeld's counties among co-ruling lines, a dynastic arrangement that generated an enormous variety of issues in short windows and makes systematic attribution genuinely difficult.
Tornau 542 is specific to the Friedeburg line's output for this two-year window.
