| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large, boldly rendered crowned Imperial double-headed eagle with dramatically spread wings dominates the field, its two heads each facing outward beneath a single Imperial crown surmounted by a cross. A globus cruciger (orb) is depicted on the breast of the eagle in place of the traditional escutcheon. The encircling Latin legend, naming Emperor Leopold I with his full titulature, runs around the periphery within a beaded border, with the date 1674 incorporated at the conclusion of the inscription. |

Emden's double thaler issues of the 1670s were struck during a period of acute political stress for the city. Long contested between the County of East Frisia and various external powers, Emden had maintained an unusually assertive independence for a relatively small port — a posture its civic coinage was meant to reinforce. The 1674 date falls shortly after the city had weathered pressure from Brandenburg, which had been asserting influence over East Frisia following the Treaty of Westphalia.
Large-flan pieces of this type are notorious for uneven planchet preparation, and surface flow lines from inadequate blank annealing are frequently encountered on genuine examples.
