| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed panoramic view of the city of Hamburg is depicted, with sailing vessels prominently shown in the foreground waters. The name HAMBURG appears in the lower portion of the field. In the heavens above the cityscape, the Tetragrammaton (the divine name Jehovah) is rendered in Hebrew characters within radiating clouds, conveying divine protection over the city. A two-part Latin legend curves above and below the central view, framing the composition in the manner characteristic of large-format Hamburg Portugalöser coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hamburg's multiple-ducat issues of the late seventeenth century were minted primarily for use in large-scale merchant transactions and diplomatic gift-giving rather than everyday commerce — a coin of this size never changed hands at a market stall. The Free City's minting authority was jealously guarded; Hamburg maintained its independent coinage rights throughout the Holy Roman Empire largely because the Senate understood that monetary credibility was inseparable from commercial credibility in a port handling Baltic, North Sea, and Atlantic trade simultaneously.
1697 falls squarely within Hamburg's most prolific period for gold multiples, driven by the city's role as a financial refuge during the Nine Years' War, which had disrupted trade routes and mint operations across much of northern Europe.
