Beschrijving voorzijde Draped bust of Emperor Leopold I facing right, with the head dividing the circular Latin legend. The legend reads LEOPOLD.D.G.R.I.(XV) S.A.G.H.BOH.REX., an abbreviation for Leopoldus Dei Gratia Romanorum Imperator Semper Augustus, ac Germaniae, Hungariae, Bohemiaeque Rex. The portrait is rendered in the high Baroque style characteristic of Habsburg coinage of the period, with the emperor's distinctive prominent jaw and flowing drapery. The regnal numeral XV appears within the legend, referencing Leopold's imperial title.

Beschrijving keerzijde Double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the center, with a Habsburg composite coat of arms on its breast. An imperial crown surmounts the eagle and bisects the upper portion of the circular legend. The Latin legend, reading ARCHIDUX AUST DUX BURG & SIL, abbreviates Archi Dux Austriae Dux Burgundiae et Silesiae, affirming Leopold's territorial titles. The mint date appears at the end of the legend, positioned below the crown rather than divided by it, followed by the mintmaster's initials SH or SHS depending on the year of issue.

Aanvullende informatie

Leopold I's Silesian 6 kreuzer issues of 1665–66 were produced amid the financial pressures of ongoing Habsburg commitments against the Ottomans and the lingering economic disruption of the Thirty Years' War. Silesia's mints were notorious during this period for producing debased or underweight subsidiary coinage, and the Breslau-area output frequently drew complaints from neighboring territories about coins failing to meet their stated tariff values.

KM#474 encompasses multiple die marriages across the two-year span, with subtle differences in the arrangement of the Silesian eagle's placement relative to the shield.
