| Beschrijving keerzijde | The denomination is presented in three horizontal lines at center: the numeral '1' above, followed by 'KREUZER', and the date of issue below, all within a decorative wreath. The wreath is composed of intertwined oak and laurel branches tied with a ribbon bow at the base, encircling the inscription and date in a refined neoclassical style. The field is plain and unadorned, allowing the central legend to dominate the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frankfurt struck these small billon pieces during the decades when the city remained one of the last genuinely independent urban republics in the German-speaking world — a status that ended abruptly when Prussia annexed the city outright in 1866 following the Austro-Prussian War. The Free City's coinage authority, exercised since medieval times, vanished with it.
The .167 fineness places this firmly in the category of fiduciary small change, the silver content barely nominal by the 1840s. Frankfurt's mint had been adjusting billon alloys downward for decades to keep fractional coinage economically viable against rising silver prices.
