| Opschrift voorzijde | MARGARE ⁑ D ⁑ BREDROD ⁑ AB ⁑ FVND ⁑ SE ⁑ THOREN 1561 (Translation: Margaretha of Brederode, Abbess of the Secular Church of Thorn) |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large, imperially crowned double-headed eagle displayed in the centre of the field, with wings spread and talons visible at the base, rendered in the bold hammered style characteristic of mid-sixteenth-century Habsburgian coinage. A single imperial crown surmounts the two heads, emphasising the Holy Roman Emperor's authority invoked on the coin. A beaded inner border frames the central eagle device and separates it from the surrounding circular Latin legend. The legend names Emperor Ferdinand I and runs continuously around the outer ring of the reverse. The overall design closely follows the standard imperial eagle type used across Habsburg-affiliated territories of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Abbey of Thorn was one of the so-called "free imperial abbeys" of the Low Countries — a secular canoness chapter whose abbess held the rank of imperial princess and exercised genuine territorial authority, including the right to strike coin. Margaret IV van Brederode held that position from 1543 until her death in 1577, and this daalder was issued under her authority but carrying the titles of the Habsburg emperor Ferdinand I, a political formality that acknowledged overlordship without surrendering the mint privilege itself.
The 1560–1561 dating places production squarely in the period when the daalder was consolidating as the dominant large silver denomination across the Habsburg Netherlands, driven partly by the 1558 imperial monetary ordinance.
