| Beschrijving keerzijde | Plain field bearing a six-line central inscription stating the denomination and date, arranged in bold block capital lettering: the numeral 12 flanked by floral ornaments at the top, followed by EINEN / REICHS / THALER across three lines, then the four-digit date 1752, and a floral ornament flanking the mint mark A at the foot. The stark, unadorned typographic design is typical of Prussian billon subsidiary coinage of the mid-eighteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick II's mid-century billon fractional issues served a practical need: the Seven Years' War had not yet begun, but Prussia's treasury was already under strain from the War of Austrian Succession and the ongoing cost of maintaining Europe's most disciplined standing army. Small-denomination coins like this 1⁄12 Reichsthaler bore much of the daily transaction burden across Prussian territories. Frederick was famously unsentimental about his coinage — he debased deliberately and systematically, and the .375 fineness here was no accident but policy.
