| Beschrijving voorzijde | Two facing busts of the co-ruling princes Johann Christian and Johann Seyfried of Eggenberg depicted side by side in high relief, each shown in draped armor with elaborate lace collars, their portraits facing one another at center. The busts are enclosed within a beaded inner circle. A Latin legend encircles the effigies along the outer border, identifying the two rulers by name and title. The date 1654 appears in the lower field between the two busts. The overall style is characteristic of mid-seventeenth-century Central European medallic portraiture. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Johann Christian and Johann Seyfried von Eggenberg were joint rulers of the Duchy of Krummau (Český Krumlov) under a division of the Eggenberg inheritance — an unusual dynastic arrangement that produced some of the most elaborate gold multiples of any Bohemian lordship. The 1654 date places this issue in the aftermath of Westphalia, when the Eggenbergs were consolidating imperial favor earned partly through Johann Ulrich von Eggenberg's close service to Ferdinand II during the Thirty Years' War.
Ten-ducat pieces of this type were almost certainly presentation strikes, not circulating currency. KM#A36 is among the rarest Eggenberg issues recorded.
