| Beschrijving voorzijde | A detailed panoramic view of the Munich cityscape dominates the field, featuring the prominent twin onion-domed towers of the Frauenkirche at center, flanked by the tower of the Altes Rathaus to the left and additional church spires to the right, all set above a rendered rooftop skyline. At the base of the city view, within a shield-shaped cartouche, appears the Munich Kindl (the city's heraldic monk figure) in frontal pose. The dates 1158 and 1958, marking the city's 800th anniversary, are inscribed in the lower field to either side of the shield. The Latin legend IN HONOREM CIVITATIS MONACENSIS arcs along the upper periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Aureus Magnus was a Munich-based private mint operating in the postwar decades, producing gold multiples aimed squarely at the continental collector and bullion market during a period when West German citizens still faced restrictions on private gold ownership under Allied occupation statutes that lingered into the early Federal Republic years. The firm's heavy 10-ducat pieces were not currency in any legal sense — they circulated among dealers and collectors as prestige objects, priced well above melt.
The X# prefix in the Standard Catalog places this firmly in the "notgeld and private issues" classification, sharing shelf space with other non-governmental gold struck for commerce outside official monetary channels.
