| Beschrijving keerzijde | An imperial orb surmounted by a cross, with the numeral 3 prominently displayed at the base of the orb, denoting the denomination of 3 Pfennig. The date is divided by the orb's cross elements and appears in the fields, consistent with standard German Dreier coinage of the period. A crown tops the orb, and the composition is rendered in the crude, irregular style characteristic of hammered small-denomination civic coinage of the mid-seventeenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hamelin's civic coinage of the 1650s was struck under the authority of a city still trading heavily on its position along the Weser River trade corridor, even as the devastation of the Thirty Years' War had left much of Lower Saxony financially hollowed out. Small silver fractions like this Dreier filled a genuine gap — territorial coinage was inconsistent, and towns of Hamelin's standing often issued their own low-denomination pieces to keep local commerce moving.
The Kalv/Schr 236d reference places this among the documented die variants cataloged by Kalvelage and Schrock for Lower Saxon civic issues.
