| Beschrijving keerzijde | A crowned imperial orb bearing the fraction numeral '24' in the lower half, denoting the coin's value as 1/24 Thaler, with a cross surmounting the orb. The date, where present, appears in the field flanking the orb. The surrounding legend references Emperor Rudolf II, reading RUDOL II RO IMP (Rudolphus II Romanorum Imperator) or similar imperial titulature in Latin capitals. The design follows the standard Kipper- and Wipperzeit-era 1/24 Thaler convention, with the imperial orb as the principal device within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hamelin held municipal minting rights intermittently through the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, producing small-denomination silver at a moment when the 1/24 Thaler — the Groschen equivalent — was the workhorse of everyday northern German commerce. The city is better remembered today for its rat-catcher legend than its coinage, but the mint was a functioning civic institution, and this issue circulated through the same market town economy that the Pied Piper story satirizes.
