| Aversbeschreibung | The Frankfurt eagle displayed with wings widely spread occupies the central field, rendered in fine relief with detailed feather work on the primary and secondary flight feathers. The heraldic eagle faces left with talons extended downward. The circular legend reads FREIE STADT at the top and FRANKFURT at the bottom, flanking the device in Latin script. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A detailed panoramic cityscape of Frankfurt am Main dominates the field, depicting the skyline with prominent church towers and Gothic architecture on the left, a multi-arched bridge spanning the river Main across the center, and additional architectural structures on the right bank. Several small sailing vessels are visible on the river, and a radiant sunburst emanates from the upper right of the field. The denomination 1.K appears in the exergue area at the base of the design. |

Frankfurt's status as a Free Imperial City — technically subordinate to no German prince — gave its mint unusual institutional independence well into the nineteenth century. This piece was struck in the final decade before the revolutions of 1848 forced a reckoning with that arrangement, and just a few years before Frankfurt would host the ill-fated German National Assembly of 1848–49 in the Paulskirche. The billon alloy at roughly one-sixth silver reflects the chronic small-denomination coinage problem that plagued German states throughout this period: pure copper was politically unacceptable, yet the coin's face value barely justified the silver content.
