| Beschrijving voorzijde | Rampant lion to left, representing the civic arms of Brunswick, with the mintmark 'B' positioned to the left of the figure. On dated issues, the year is divided and placed below the lion. The design is rendered in the bold, somewhat crude style typical of mid-16th century German hammered small coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Brunswick's civic coinage of the 1550s was struck during a period of persistent tension between the city and the surrounding Duchy — the urban municipality jealously guarded its minting rights as a practical assertion of independence from ducal authority. The Dreier denomination itself was a north German small-change workhorse, and city-struck examples frequently circulated alongside ducal issues of the same face value, creating constant friction over seigniorage.
The three-year production window across Jesse Braun numbers 50–52 suggests at least three distinguishable die marriages, likely reflecting annual re-engraving rather than a single continuous run.
