正面铭文	CAROLVS ADAMVS COMES I MANSFEL HP K 16 57
背面描述	Armored equestrian figure of Saint George, mounted on a caparisoned horse rearing to the right, thrusting a lance downward to slay a dragon prostrate beneath the horse's hooves. The saint wears full armor and a plumed helmet, rendered in dynamic relief. The scene fills the inner field, enclosed by a beaded border, with the Latin legend continuing around the full circumference of the coin.

附加信息	Charles Adam of Mansfeld-Bornstedt ruled one of the smallest and most financially precarious subdivisions of the already-fragmented Mansfeld comital territories, a dynasty that had spent most of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries parceling itself into ever-diminishing inheritance shares. By 1657 the county was deep in debt, its silver mines — once among the most productive in the Holy Roman Empire — largely exhausted. A 10-ducat presentation piece in this context is not routine coinage but almost certainly a diplomatic or ceremonial strike, the kind of object a minor count produced to assert relevance he could barely afford. The Mansfeld mines had supplied bullion to the Reformation-era economy and employed Thomas Müntzer before his role in the 1525 peasant revolt.
