背面描述	Crowned double-headed imperial eagle displayed, with wings spread, occupying the central field. The eagle bears a scepter and orb in its talons, rendered in the characteristic German Renaissance style. An imperial crown surmounts both heads. The encircling Latin devotional legend, drawn from Psalm 17, reads continuously around the eagle within a beaded border.

附加信息	Haldenstein was a tiny Rhaetian lordship wedged between the canton of Graubünden and the episcopal territory of Chur — sovereign enough to strike coins, barely large enough to matter politically. The dicken issued under Thomas I, Lord of Schauenstein-Haldenstein, dates to a period when the Rhaetian Freestate was being pulled apart by Spanish, French, and Venetian interests competing for control of the Alpine passes. Local lords struck silver partly as a demonstration of autonomy, partly because the passes generated enough traffic and tolls to justify the mint. The reference spread across KM#41 and two Divo/Tobler entries suggests at least two die varieties exist for this type.
