| Reverse description | Imperial double-headed eagle displayed in the field, with wings spread and feathers finely detailed in the hammered style, bearing a small shield on its breast. At the base of the eagle, the denomination numeral 3 is enclosed within a small circle, indicating the value in Kreuzer. The surrounding Latin legend reads ARCHID·A·D·B·C·TYR followed by the mint year, abbreviating Ferdinand III's titles as Archduke of Austria, Duke of Burgundy, Count of Tyrol, and related dignities, all separated by pellets within a beaded border. The year 1639 is visible at the left of the legend as confirmed by the image. |
