| Beschrijving keerzijde | Noah's Ark depicted afloat on turbulent floodwaters, with heavy rain descending from dense storm clouds above; the Ark is shown in detailed relief with a house-like superstructure amidships and a curved prow to the left. The circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, serving as a devotional motto alluding to the safety of the faithful. The date 1717 appears in the exergue below a plain horizontal baseline, flanked by small decorative stops. The reeded border is clearly visible at the coin's edge, consistent with the milled technique of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Lutheran Reformation's bicentenary in 1717 triggered a wave of commemorative issues across Protestant German territories, each city essentially competing to demonstrate confessional loyalty. Schwäbisch Hall had particular reason to celebrate — it was among the earliest Imperial Free Cities to adopt Lutheranism, doing so formally in 1527 under the influence of Johannes Brenz, one of the Reformation's more consequential but underappreciated figures. This silver piece is a pattern for a 2-Ducat denomination, struck in the wrong metal entirely, almost certainly for presentation or archival purposes rather than any intended circulation.
