| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse depicts the Bohemian lion passant, shown in profile with a forked tail raised over its back, a heraldic device long associated with the Kingdom of Bohemia. The lion occupies the central field of this small hammered flan, with surrounding legends or mint marks partially visible at the periphery. An anchor mintmark, associated with the Prague mint during this period, appears in the lower field beneath the lion. The overall strike is weak in areas, consistent with the crude hammered production methods employed for fractional silver coinage of this era. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Ferdinand III spent much of his reign managing the catastrophic aftermath of the Thirty Years' War, which ended in 1648 — just seven years before this piece was struck. The Peace of Westphalia had left Bohemia's economy hollowed out, and small silver fractions like this circulated in a monetary environment still struggling to absorb decades of debasement and wartime coin manipulation by multiple competing powers.
Prague's mint was among the most active in Central Europe during this period, though output quality for the smallest denominations was notoriously inconsistent. At 0.3 g, production losses to clipping and wear were nearly immediate.
