| Beschrijving voorzijde | The city arms of Worms — a divided shield bearing a key and a cross — displayed within an elaborate ornamental cartouche with scrollwork and foliate decoration at the base. The shield is centrally positioned in the field, rendered in the Mannerist style characteristic of early seventeenth-century German municipal coinage. A circular Latin legend reading .MON.NOV.LIB.IMP.CIVIT.VORMATI surrounds the central device, separated from it by a plain inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Worms retained the right to strike its own coinage well into the seventeenth century despite being a city in visible political and economic decline — its once-dominant position in Rhenish trade had been steadily eroded by Frankfurt and Mainz over the preceding century. The Dicken denomination itself was a Swiss-origin coin that migrated into the broader imperial monetary system, and its adoption by smaller imperial cities like Worms was partly an attempt to align local issues with recognizable regional standards.
The production window here coincides almost exactly with the opening years of the Thirty Years' War, which broke in 1618 and quickly disrupted minting activity across the Rhineland.
