Beschrijving keerzijde Elaborate quartered coat of arms of the Duchy of Münsterberg-Oels displayed centrally, incorporating an Imperial eagle in one quarter and a chequered field in another, the shield surmounted by multiple crested helms with elaborate mantling in the Renaissance heraldic style. Two small stars flank the uppermost helm above. The date 616 (representing 1616) appears to the left within the field, and the circumferential Latin legend SVPREM PER VT SIL CAPIT 616 runs around the periphery, all within a beaded border.

Aanvullende informatie

Münsterberg-Oels was a small Silesian duchy under Piast rule that passed to the Podiebrad line and eventually into the orbit of Habsburg influence. Charles II — Karl II von Münsterberg-Oels — ruled from 1587 until his death in 1617, and this six-ducat piece was struck in the final years of his reign, almost certainly as a presentation piece rather than a circulating denomination. Multi-ducat issues of this scale from minor Silesian principalities were typically struck in tiny numbers for diplomatic gifts or court ceremonies.

The 1615–1616 dating spans two calendar years, suggesting production across a New Year — a detail consistent with a small workshop minting to order rather than maintaining continuous production runs.
