| Beschrijving keerzijde | Elaborately crowned composite heraldic arms displaying the multiple quarterings of the Habsburg dominions, with a central escutcheon bearing the arms of Upper Alsace. The Order of the Golden Fleece is suspended from the shield as a collar, with a notably small fleece pendant. The surrounding legend, NEC NON ARCHIDVCES AVS DV BV LAND G ALS CO FE, records the additional titles of Archduke of Austria, Duke of Burgundy, Landgrave of Alsace, and Count of Ferrette. The composition is executed in the elaborate late-Renaissance heraldic style typical of Habsburg coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rudolf II died in January 1612, meaning this thaler was struck either in the final weeks of his reign or — more likely — posthumously under the authority still carrying his name, a common practice among Alsatian mints settling unfinished business. The Landgraviate of Upper Alsace was administered through the Habsburg inner-Austrian line, and its minting rights were exercised sporadically, which accounts for the relatively narrow die-variety spread documented across the Klemm references 176 through 180.
The year 1612 also saw Matthias formally elected Holy Roman Emperor, creating administrative pressure to retire Rudolf's coinage types quickly.
