| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central shield bearing the quartered arms of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth — the White Eagle of Poland and the Pursuer (Pahonia) of Lithuania — set within an elaborate ornamental cartouche typical of late 16th-century heraldic engraving. The shield is surmounted by a large royal crown. The encircling Latin legend, beginning with a triangular punctuation mark and concluding with a ring stop, enumerates the king's full royal titulature including his claims to the thrones of Ruthenia, Prussia, Gothia, and Vandalia. The date 93 (for 1593) appears within the reverse legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Malbork mint operated under lease arrangements throughout much of the late sixteenth century, with the city's access to Baltic trade networks making it a logical site for high-denomination gold production destined for international commerce rather than domestic circulation. Ten-ducat pieces of this type functioned essentially as bullion instruments and diplomatic gifts — few would have passed through ordinary hands.
Sigismund III's early reign saw persistent tension with the Sejm over mint policy and coin quality, and large gold multiples like this one were produced in very limited runs, often to order. Kopicki 1434 is among the rarer citations in the Commonwealth gold series.
