| Reverse description | Crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed, with wings spread, each head surmounted by a separate crown and the whole ensigned by a large central imperial crown. The eagle's breast bears the quartered Habsburg arms on an ornate heraldic shield. The date 1722 appears in the upper field flanking the central crown, and the surrounding Latin legend reads ARCHID • AVST • DVX: :BVR •&• SILESIÆ: 1722, referencing Charles VI's titles as Archduke of Austria, Duke of Burgundy, and Duke of Silesia. The reverse is executed in bold high-relief Baroque style consistent with Silesian mint production of the period. |
