| Beschrijving voorzijde | A large Gothic letter 'N', the initial of Northeim, displayed prominently at center within a decorative octalobe (eight-lobed) inner border. The surrounding circular legend reads the city's monetary inscription in abbreviated Latin. The Gothic letterform is boldly rendered in the late medieval style typical of mid-16th century German municipal coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Northeim's körtling coinage of the 1550s reflects the chaotic fragmentation of small-denomination silver in Lower Saxony during the mid-sixteenth century, when dozens of minor cities, counties, and ecclesiastical territories each struck their own petty silver to fill gaps left by the chronic shortage of reliable small change. The Holy Roman Empire's repeated attempts at currency ordinances — including the Reichsmünzordnung of 1551 — largely failed to discipline this lower tier of coinage, and towns like Northeim simply continued minting on their own terms.
