| Obverse description | The heraldic griffin of Pomerania, facing left in a rampant posture, is depicted in high relief at the center of the field, surmounted by a stylized crown. Beneath the griffin, the denomination numeral '3' appears within an oval cartouche. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, opening with the ruler's name in the abbreviated medieval form VLDARIC9, followed by his titles as Duke of Stettin and Pomerania. The overall style is characteristic of early seventeenth-century German hammered billon coinage. |

| Reverse description | The central device consists of a crowned imperial orb bearing the value numeral '24' (rendered as 'Z4' in the period convention) within its lower globe, symbolizing the coin's denomination as a 1/24 Thaler. The four-digit date is split to either side of the orb, with '16' to the left and the final two digits to the right, a layout typical of early Kipper und Wipper-era German small silver. A circular Latin legend reading DEVS PROTECTOR MEVS ('God is my protector') encircles the entire composition, punctuated by stops. The execution is consistent with hammered production of the Cammin mint under die-cutter Johannes Hildisch. |
