Beschrijving voorzijde A pontifical legate's hat (galero) is depicted at the top of the field, from which two symmetrical rows of decorative tassels descend on either side, terminating in pendant threads. Beneath the galero, a long cross and a crozier are placed in saltire, forming the central armorial device of the archiepiscopal see. The circumferential legend in Latin encircles the entire design and identifies the issuing archbishop by name and title.

In his right hand he holds a salt cellar, referencing the etymology and economic foundation of Salzburg, while his left hand grasps a crozier, symbol of his episcopal authority. The saint is depicted with a nimbus, emphasizing his sanctified status. The surrounding Latin legend names him explicitly as Bishop of Salzburg.

Aanvullende informatie

Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau became Archbishop of Salzburg in 1587 at just 28 years old, backed by his Medici family connections on his mother's side. He ruled as an absolutist prince-bishop, demolishing much of medieval Salzburg to rebuild it in Italian Baroque style — a project funded in part by the city's salt revenues, which gave these thalers their economic backbone. His reign ended in 1612 when he was deposed by Bavarian forces and imprisoned at Hohensalzburg, where he died five years later.

The long production window of 1587–1612 means significant die variation exists across the series; Zöttl catalogues multiple obverse and reverse combinations within this single type reference.
