The eagle, facing dexter with wings spread, is placed at the intersection of the cross arms, each arm terminating in a crown. The surrounding circular legend reads MONETA REIPVB FRANCOFORTENSIS, separated by rosette stops, enclosed within a beaded inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frankfurt's double thaler issues of the early seventeenth century were produced at a moment when the city's mint was navigating the fractured monetary landscape of the Holy Roman Empire, striking heavy silver for trade circulation rather than local exchange. The 1606 date places this piece in the years immediately preceding the monetary chaos that would accelerate through the Kipper- und Wipperzeit of 1619–1623, when debasement by surrounding territories made high-weight civic coinage from imperial free cities increasingly anomalous.
The Davenport reference ST#5280 distinguishes this as a presentation-weight striking — pieces of this heft rarely entered everyday commerce.
