| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned Hohenzollern eagle displayed in the centre of the field, with wings spread and detailed feathering rendered in fine relief. The date appears to one side of the eagle and the mintmaster's initials to the other, flanking the central device. A circular legend in Latin script surrounds the entire design, running within a milled border. The overall style is characteristic of early 18th-century German small coinage engraving. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick III of Brandenburg-Bayreuth — who styled himself Frederick as Margrave — ruled this small Franconian territory during a period when the proliferation of tiny billon fractions across the German states had become a genuine administrative headache. The 1/48 Thaler denomination was a product of the fractured Holy Roman monetary system, where each petty principality retained the right to strike its own coinage, producing a circulation environment so fragmented that merchants routinely needed conversion tables just to conduct basic transactions.
Brandenburg-Bayreuth's output was modest by any measure, and billon issues of this type saw hard daily use and survive mostly in well-worn condition.
