Beschrijving keerzijde Armored bust of Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI facing right, wearing elaborately articulated plate armor with a lace cravat visible at the neck, and his long curled periwig falling over the shoulders in the Baroque style. The effigy is boldly modeled in high relief with fine detail to the cuirass and drapery. The circular Latin legend surrounding the bust abbreviates his full imperial and dynastic titles.

Aanvullende informatie

Regensburg occupied a peculiar position in the Holy Roman Empire — simultaneously a Free Imperial City and, from 1663 onward, the permanent seat of the Reichstag. That perpetual diet, never dissolved until Napoleon ended the Empire in 1806, made the city a stage for continuous imperial politics. Coinage from this period reflects that status directly: the right to strike gold was both a privilege jealously defended and a practical necessity for a city hosting diplomats, princes, and their retinues for decades on end.

The 1711–1740 span brackets the reign of Charles VI, under whose authority the city's minting rights were periodically confirmed.
