Beschrijving keerzijde Crowned imperial double-headed eagle displayed within an inner pearl circle, the crown at top dividing the date 1678, with the mintmark K–B placed to either side of the eagle's tail feathers below. Upon the eagle's breast is a shield bearing the crowned fourfold Hungarian-Bohemian coat of arms arranged in a U-shaped cartouche, displaying alternating Árpádian stripes and the Bohemian lion, with an inescutcheon in the center bearing the uncrowned combined arms of Austria and Burgundy. The entire composition is executed in the elaborate heraldic style typical of high-denomination Habsburg multiple ducats of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

Leopold I's multiple-ducat strikes were prestige pieces produced specifically for diplomatic gifts and court presentation — not circulation currency. The Hungarian mint at Kremnitz (Körmöcbánya) was the primary source, one of the most productive gold mints in Europe owing to the rich ore deposits of the region, then still partially under Habsburg control despite sustained Ottoman pressure on the kingdom's eastern and southern frontiers.

By 1678, Leopold was simultaneously managing the aftermath of the Wesselényi conspiracy and the early stages of Imre Thököly's uprising — a period of acute internal instability that makes any large-denomination gold issue from this year relatively scarce in institutional collections today.
