The Homage of Magdeburg in May 1681 marked the formal submission of the city to Brandenburg-Prussian authority following the Great Elector Frederick William's absorption of the Archbishopric of Magdeburg — a territory he had held in expectation since the Peace of Westphalia in 1648 but was denied by Swedish occupation and political obstruction for over three decades. The city's capitulation was both a diplomatic conclusion and a personal vindication for Frederick William, and multiple gold multiples were struck to commemorate the ceremony.
At ten ducats, this is among the heaviest denominations produced for the occasion. Such presentation pieces were distributed to dignitaries rather than circulated, which accounts for the survival rate in relatively high condition.
