| Beschrijving keerzijde | A crowned shield with a flat top bearing a heraldic eagle facing left, with a smaller escutcheon on the eagle's breast, all set within a plain inner circle. The mint-master's initials 'GG' appear to the left of the shield, and the date '1647' is inscribed vertically to the right. A Latin legend encircles the entire design between the inner circle and the coin's edge, identifying the issuing authority of the Duchies of Oppeln and Ratibor. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Vladislaus IV died in May 1648, so this piece was struck in the final year of his reign — a reign during which Silesia remained nominally under Habsburg suzerainty while Vladislaus held Oppeln and Ratibor as a pledge against unpaid Polish debts owed to the Vasa dynasty. The arrangement dated to 1645 and was perpetually contentious, with Vienna reluctant to redeem the pledge and Warsaw equally reluctant to press the matter.
Silesian 3 Kreuzers of this period are often encountered with weak peripheral legends owing to overcrowded dies — a known production issue at the Oppeln mint, not a strike anomaly specific to individual examples.
