| Reverse description | A crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the field, with wings spread, each head surmounted by an individual crown beneath a large central imperial crown. The breast of the eagle bears a composite heraldic shield displaying the arms of the Habsburg territories, with the plain Austrian shield (barry of gules and argent) positioned prominently below within the legend. The date 1617 appears at the end of the encircling Latin legend, which reads ARCHID AVS DVX // BVR CO TYR, referencing the Emperor's titles as Archduke of Austria, Duke of Burgundy, and Count of Tyrol. |
