背面描述	The reverse features an elaborate Baroque cartouche composed of symmetrical acanthus-scroll and foliate ornaments framing a three-line Latin inscription in the central field. A seraph head with outstretched wings presides over the cartouche at the top, rendered in high relief. Below the inscription, the date 1673 is divided and set within a further scrollwork arrangement at the base. The entire composition is enclosed by a finely milled inner border, exemplifying the decorative coinage style of seventeenth-century Swiss city-states.

附加信息	Zürich's ducats of this period maintained the longstanding Rhenish ducat standard, a deliberate policy that kept the city's coinage acceptable across the fragmented Swiss Confederation and into the German trade networks beyond. The city jealously guarded its minting rights as a mark of political autonomy within the Confederation, and the regularity of its gold output during the 1670s reflects a period of relative commercial stability following the disruptions of the Thirty Years' War. KM#104 is distinguished from adjacent Zürich ducat types by its specific die pairing — collectors should cross-reference HMZ 2-1139 for die variety attribution.
