Beschrijving keerzijde Crudely hammered reverse bearing a multi-line Latin legend arranged in three horizontal registers across the irregular flan, reading CI VITAS BAT with the date 1622 at the base. The lettering is boldly if roughly incised, with individual characters showing uneven alignment and variable depth of strike. The abbreviated inscription identifies this piece as a civic issue of the city of Batenburg. The plain field surrounding the legend is unadorned. The overall execution is consistent with the rudimentary minting practices of the Barony of Batenburg during this period.

Aanvullende informatie

Batenburg was a small lordship on the Maas in Gelderland, and its coinage authority was legally contested for much of the early seventeenth century. The Lords of Batenburg exploited the jurisdictional ambiguity of the Holy Roman Empire's minting rights to strike coins that frequently undercut the weight and fineness standards set by the imperial recesses — a practice that drew repeated complaints from neighboring provinces during precisely this period.

The 1621–1622 window coincides with renewed Dutch-Spanish hostilities following the expiration of the Twelve Years' Truce.
