Weissgroschen - Rudolf II Kuttenberg

正面描述	Within a beaded inner circle, the rampant Bohemian lion facing left, depicted with elaborate mane and tail, occupies the central field. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner circle, reading the emperor's titles. The design is characteristic of the hammered klippe coinage of Rudolf II struck at the Kuttenberg (Kutná Hora) mint.

附加信息	By 1604, the Kuttenberg (Kutná Hora) mint had been the principal silver-striking facility in Bohemia for over two centuries, its output sustained by the extraordinarily rich Ag deposits of the Bohemian Ore Mountains. Rudolf II, despite his well-documented preoccupation with alchemy, astrology, and his Prague court of curiosities, never neglected the practical machinery of coinage — the Bohemian mints remained tightly administered under his reign even as his grip on actual governance slipped. Meisenbug's reference 260 covers a type produced during the period when Rudolf was already locked in the Bruderzwist, the bitter succession conflict with his brother Matthias that would eventually cost him the Bohemian crown in 1611.
