| Beschrijving keerzijde | Armoured equestrian figure of Maximilian in right profile, mounted on a caparisoned horse and bearing a lance with a pennant over his right shoulder; the date 1612 appears beneath the horse in the lower field. The Grand Master's shield of the Teutonic Order is displayed below the horse. Surrounding the central equestrian group is a broad border composed of ten heraldic shields bearing the arms of the various territories and dignities of the Order, all within a beaded outer border. The continuation of the legend ET PRVSSIAE ADM LANDG ALSAC ET COM HOHENBERG runs around the periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Teutonic Order's monetary issues of the early seventeenth century reflect an institution in slow institutional decline — stripped of its Prussian territories by secularization in 1525, the Order had retreated to its remaining holdings in the Holy Roman Empire under successive administrators who nonetheless maintained the full ceremonial apparatus of a sovereign, coinage included. Maximilian of Austria, who held the position of Grand Master from 1590 to 1618, used issues like this to assert continued independence from Habsburg absorption, despite being himself an archduke of the house.
Fr#3379 is among the scarcer Teutonic gold multiples of the period. Surviving examples turn up almost exclusively in old European cabinet collections.
