| Obverse lettering | DER. STAD. STRALSVND. GELT. |
| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a four-line inscription in the central field within a beaded inner circle, declaring the denomination and standard of the coin in abbreviated German: 16 / REICHS / TALER / [date], indicating this piece is the sixteenth part of a Reichsthaler struck to imperial weight and fineness. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner border reading REICHS. SCHROT. VND KORN., meaning 'imperial weight and alloy,' affirming the coin's conformity to Reichsmünzordnung standards. The date appears in the lowest line of the central inscription, rendered in the characteristic ligature style of the period where the letter Z substitutes for the numeral 2. The overall engraving is crisp and utilitarian, consistent with municipal coinage of the Thirty Years' War era. |
