| Beschrijving voorzijde | Armored and draped bust of Ferdinand III facing right, wearing a large ruffed collar and featuring curly hair; the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece is displayed beneath the effigy. The circumferential legend in Latin reads FERDINAND:III D:G:H:REX, identifying the ruler by name, title, and regal dignity. The portrait is rendered in the elaborate Baroque court style characteristic of early seventeenth-century Habsburg coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The St. Veit mint in Carinthia was among the oldest in Habsburg territory, operating since the medieval period, and by 1629 Ferdinand III — then still Archduke and King of Hungary and Bohemia, not yet Holy Roman Emperor — was issuing multiples like this as presentation pieces rather than circulating currency. Ten-ducat strikes of this type were diplomatic gifts and court rewards, physically handed to generals, ambassadors, and nobles in the thick of the Thirty Years' War.
Fr#189 is notably rare in any condition. The dies for St. Veit multiples were prepared locally and used for very limited runs, which distinguishes them from the Vienna and Graz issues of the same reign.
