Struck during the one-month siege of the Jülich fortress.
Siege coins worth 1 to 20 talers were struck of silver, the largest piece 90 grams. Additionally, a 40 thaler gold coin was struck. The number indicates the value. R stands for Emperor Rudolf II and L stands for Archduke Leopold V.

Struck from silverware.
