| Beschrijving voorzijde | The city arms of Nuremberg — a half eagle over diagonal barry field — displayed on a baroque cartouche shield, flanked symmetrically by ornate foliate branches. A mural crown surmounts the shield, symbolising Nuremberg's status as a Free Imperial City. Below the shield, a decorative pedestal cartouche bears the mintmaster's initial F in the field. The overall composition is rendered in a formal Baroque style with bold, deeply struck relief. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nuremberg's billon kreuzer issues of the 1760s were minted under increasingly strained circumstances — the city had emerged from the Seven Years' War deeply indebted, its finances wrecked by occupation costs and the demands of successive occupying armies. The war ended in 1763, the same year this piece was struck, and the city's mint was running hard to meet local demand for small change that had been disrupted throughout the conflict.
Nuremberg lost its status as a Free Imperial City in 1806 when it was absorbed into Bavaria under Napoleon's reorganization of German territories.
