| Beschrijving voorzijde | Six-line Latin commemorative inscription in roman numerals and text, reading IN.MEMO / RIAM.REGIAE. / CORONATIONIS. / ET.COMITIORUM / RATISBON.ANO / M.DC.LIII, arranged within an elaborately engraved cartouche of foliate and scrollwork ornament. The cartouche is surmounted by a small decorative finial at the top and flanked by symmetrical acanthus-leaf flourishes. The entire composition is enclosed within a finely reeded border, giving the piece a distinctly Baroque character consistent with mid-seventeenth-century German civic medallic art. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Regensburg hosted the Reichstag almost continuously from 1663 until its dissolution in 1806, but 1653 marked something more charged: the conclusion of the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss and the formal reconvening of the Imperial Diet after the devastation of the Thirty Years' War. The city struck presentation pieces in this format to mark the occasion — coins that were never intended to circulate but to be gifted, displayed, or archived as diplomatic objects.
A silver pattern at 4-ducat weight is a deliberate paradox: the denomination references gold, the metal is silver, and the audience was never the public. Plato records only a handful of confirmed examples.
