| Reverse description | Denomination II KREUTZER inscribed in three lines within a plain inner circle, flanked by small rosette stops. The surrounding outer legend, separated by the inner circle border, bears the imperial titles of Ferdinand II in Latin — FERD·II·ROM·IMP·S·AV — running continuously around the circumference. The overall design is characteristic of early seventeenth-century south German hammered coinage. |
