| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays two crossed pine branches arranged in a saltire (X-form) at the centre of the octagonal flan, with a trefoil ornament at the top and a small mintmaster's mark or pellet group at the base. The date 1754 is distributed across the four quadrants formed by the crossed branches, with '17' to the left and '54' to the right, in bold Roman numerals. A fine milled border runs around the inner edge of the octagonal flan. The overall composition is symmetrical and typical of small-denomination Augsburg coinage of the mid-eighteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Augsburg's municipal coinage in the mid-eighteenth century occupied an awkward position — the city retained its imperial free status and minting rights, but the Heller denomination had long ceased to function as a practical silver coin in everyday commerce. Pattern strikes like this one were almost certainly produced for presentation or collector purposes rather than any genuine monetary proposal, a common practice among German civic mints trying to demonstrate technical competence to potential patrons or document their die work for posterity.
The Forster/Schmelzing reference places this among a small cluster of Augsburg pattern issues from the 1750s. Survivors are rare in any form.
