| Reverse description | Centrally positioned complex heraldic achievement of the Habsburg arms, comprising a multi-quartered shield displaying the arms of Hungary, Austria, Burgundy, Castile, León, and Tyrol among other dynastic territories, surmounted by an elaborate imperial crown. The shield is encircled by the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece, whose pendant badge hangs beneath. A beaded inner border frames the armorial composition, while the circumferential Latin legend, interrupted by the date 1609 at the top of the field, reads ARCHID AVS DVX BVR MAR MO CO TYR, enumerating Matthias's titles as Archduke of Austria, Duke of Burgundy, Margrave of Moravia, and Count of Tyrol. |
