| Aanvullende informatie |
The Teutonic Order's coinage authority by 1611 was a shadow of its medieval military power — the Prussian branch had been secularized under Albert of Brandenburg-Ansbach in 1525, leaving the remaining Order confined largely to its holdings in the Holy Roman Empire. Maximilian I, Archduke of Austria, served as Grand Master from 1590 to 1618 and aggressively reasserted the Order's dignity through large-format gold issues like this one.
Ten-ducat pieces were never meant for commerce. Struck as presentation pieces for diplomatic exchange and court gifts, survival in any condition is exceptional. KM#14 is among the heaviest gold multiples attributed to this administration.
