| Beschrijving keerzijde | A crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed in the field, with wings spread and heads facing outward, bearing a shield on its breast. Above the eagle, a small imperial crown surmounts the composition, and a patriarchal cross is depicted between the heads. The coin is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend SI DEVS PRO NOBIS Q CON NOS arranged around the periphery, a scriptural motto derived from Romans 8:31. The engraving is bold and typical of hammered Swiss ecclesiastical coinage of the early seventeenth century. |

Johann V of Werdenberg-Heiligenberg held the see of Chur from 1601 until his death in 1627, navigating the bishopric through some of the most turbulent confessional politics in the Graubünden — a region where Reformed, Catholic, and Zwinglian communities were in constant friction and the Gotthard and Splügen passes made every local power a target for Spanish and French interference alike. The Dicken denomination, a Swiss heavy silver coin roughly equivalent to the south German Dicken tradition, was the principal large silver denomination of the Rhaetian ecclesiastical mints in this period. HMZ 2#407e distinguishes this as one of several die variants produced in Johann's early episcopate.
