| Reverse description | The denomination 1/2 GROSCHEN is displayed prominently in the central field in three lines, reading '1/2 / GROSCHEN / PREUSS.' below which the date 1811 appears, with the Berlin mint mark 'A' at the very bottom of the field. A circular peripheral legend reading '180 EINEN REICHS THALER' runs around the upper portion of the coin, indicating the fractional relationship of the denomination to the Reichsthaler. The inscription is executed in bold Roman capital letters throughout, reflecting the austere utilitarian style of Napoleonic-era Prussian copper coinage. |
