| Beschrijving keerzijde | A prominent double-armed cross (cross of Lorraine type) with splayed terminals occupies the central field, enclosed within a rope-style inner circle. The legend STADT MVNTZ, meaning 'city coin', is inscribed in the outer margin, interrupted by the date and a double-cross mint mark (++) positioned at the top. The date appears distributed around the outer legend, as seen on the 1694 example. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nuremberg's kreuzer coinage of this period reflects the city's precarious balancing act as a Free Imperial City — nominally sovereign, yet perpetually squeezed between the Habsburg emperor's monetary edicts and the practical demands of local trade. The city's mint output during these decades was tightly scrutinized under the Augsburg Imperial Recess monetary conventions, which set strict standards for small silver that Nuremberg's mint masters were frequently accused of undercutting.
At 0.65 g, these were struck at the absolute lower margin of viable silver coinage — any further debasement would have pushed them into billon territory outright.
