1 Hvid - Christian III Copenhagen

Christian III's reign saw Denmark consolidate Lutheran church governance after the Reformation settlement of 1536, and the small silver hvid denominations of this period were among the workhorses of everyday Danish commerce. The Copenhagen mint operated under strict royal oversight during these years, with mintmaster accountability enforced through regular assay inspections.

Hauberg 151 is a scarce attribution within the Christian III hvid series. At 0.63 g, these pieces were struck on irregular flans cut from rolled silver sheet — flan preparation inconsistencies account for much of the variation collectors encounter across surviving examples.
