| 正面描述 | Square klippe flan with chamfered corners bearing the crowned arms of Württemberg at center, flanked at each corner by crowned CA (Carolus Alexander) royal cypher monograms. The denomination inscription appears at the base of the design. A Latin legend encircles the field referencing the Imperial authority, the commander, and the besieged city of Landau, with the date 1713 incorporated into the inscription. The overall execution is characteristic of hastily produced siege coinage, with somewhat crude but purposeful die engraving. |

Landau fell under siege twice during the War of the Spanish Succession — first by Allied forces in 1702, then recaptured by France, then besieged again in 1713 by Imperial troops under command of the future Emperor Charles VI, fighting here under his claim as Charles III of Spain. This piece belongs to that second siege. Necessity coinage struck under extreme duress, it was produced from whatever gold the garrison could gather rather than from regular mint supply.
The .986 fineness is notably high for emergency coinage — a deliberate signal that Landau's commandant, refusing humiliation, would not debase even under blockade. The city fell in August 1713, weeks before the Treaty of Utrecht reshuffled its sovereignty to France.
