Beschrijving voorzijde Crowned and elaborately mantled coat of arms of Mansfeld, divided into quarters with alternating horizontal lines and lozenges, supported by ornate foliate scrollwork. The mintmaster's initials G-M appear flanking the crown above the shield, with the date split across the lower field. A circular beaded border frames the design, with the Latin legend running along the outer rim.

Aanvullende informatie

Mansfeld-Schraplau was one of the smallest and most financially precarious of the Mansfeld partition counties, a consequence of the relentless subdivision of the Mansfeld comital lands through inheritance across the sixteenth century. By 1602, the county's silver output from the Mansfeld mining district — once among the most productive in the Holy Roman Empire — was in steep decline, making issues from this period both economically strained and historically terminal. Henry II's tenure as count was brief, and few emission types are recorded under his name.
