背面描述	The reverse presents a purely typographic design in the German Scheidemünze tradition. The numeral I appears at the top centre of the field, flanked by two decorative lozenge-shaped ornaments. Below, in four bold lines filling the field, the inscription reads HELLER / SCHEIDE / MUNTZ followed by the date on the lowest line. The plain, unadorned lettering in a serif style is characteristic of small-denomination copper coinage of the Holy Roman Empire in the late eighteenth century.

附加信息	William IX inherited Hanau-Münzenberg in 1760 at age nine, with administration handled by regents until he came of age. These small copper hellers were among the last coins struck under the Hanau-Münzenberg name — when William later inherited Hanau-Lichtenberg in 1775, the two counties merged and the separate Münzenberg coinage ceased entirely. He would go on to become Elector Wilhelm I of Hesse-Kassel, notorious for lending Hessian troops to the British during the American Revolutionary War and profiting handsomely from the arrangement.
