Beschrijving keerzijde A standing figure of St. Martin the Bishop occupies the central field, flanked by four additional saintly figures in a procession-like arrangement; a goose is depicted at lower left, referencing the iconographic tradition of St. Martin. Above, a radiant sun partially obscured by clouds illuminates the scene from the upper register. The peripheral Latin legend names the saints depicted, recording their feast of translation: SS. Martin, Vincent the Martyr, Hermes the Martyr, Chrysanthus and Daria the Martyrs.

Aanvullende informatie

Max Gandolf von Kuenburg ruled the Archbishopric of Salzburg from 1668 until his death in 1687, presiding over a period of aggressive Catholic consolidation. In 1684 — just two years after this piece was struck — he ordered the expulsion of over a thousand Protestant miners and farmers from the Defereggental, one of the more brutal confessional purges in the region's history. The multi-ducat series issued under his tenure were almost certainly presentation pieces, struck for diplomatic gift-giving rather than any commercial function.

Salzburg's mint had access to substantial Tyrolean gold supplies, which accounts for the high fineness maintained across these large-format strikes.
