Beschrijving voorzijde Within a beaded inner circle, a Gothic capital E superimposed at the centre of an octofoil ornament, the petals of which are decorated with small trefoil motifs. The entire device is contained within a plain raised ring, surrounded by the circular legend in Gothic and Latin lettering. The design is characteristic of the restrained civic heraldic style of early 16th-century North German municipal coinage.

Beschrijving keerzijde A Gothic capital E superimposed upon a cross, the arms of which extend to the inner beaded border, all set within a circle. Small ornamental elements occupy the quarters between the cross arms. The surrounding circular legend, rendered in a mixture of Gothic and Latin letterforms, records the regnal year in Roman numerals, referencing the year of issue. The composition reflects the standard typology of small hammered silver denominations from the Lower Saxon region in the mid-16th century.

Aanvullende informatie

Einbeck was one of the most prosperous brewing towns in northern Germany during the sixteenth century — the city's exported beer was so widely traded that "Einbecker Bier" eventually gave us the word "Bock." That commercial wealth underwrote exactly the kind of municipal coinage autonomy reflected here. The Körtling was a small north German silver denomination, roughly equivalent to the Pfennig-based accounting of the region, issued by dozens of towns exercising imperial minting privileges during this period.

Buck's Einbeck corpus remains the authoritative reference for the city's civic coinage, and the die pairing cited places this squarely within the middle phase of the series.
