| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length standing figure of Lucius Munatius Plancus, the Roman general and founder of Colonia Raurica (ancient Basel), depicted in classical Roman military attire including a plumed helmet, muscled cuirass, and pteruges, facing left on a decorated pedestal. His right arm is raised, and his left hand rests on a large oval shield prominently inscribed SPQR. The surrounding Latin legend, separated by stops, commemorates Plancus as the founder of the Rauric colony, all within a milled border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Basel's multi-ducat issues of this period were civic prestige pieces rather than trade currency, struck in small quantities for presentation to visiting dignitaries, city officials, and diplomatic delegations. The city-republic jealously guarded its minting privileges well into the early eighteenth century, and issues like this one reflect Basel's determination to project independent municipal authority during a period when Swiss confederate politics were increasingly consolidating around cantonal rather than urban identities.
Freudenberg 74 is among the rarer Basel gold multiples, with surviving examples traceable to a handful of major auction appearances over the past four decades.
