| 裏面の説明 | Three-line inscription within a central circle, reading the denomination '1 MARCK' above the date, enclosed by an ornamental wreath border. The circumferential Latin legend identifying the city of Aachen (Aquis Granum) surrounds the inner circle, separated by decorative stops. The overall composition is characteristic of Kipper-period emergency coinage struck at reduced silver fineness. |

The Kipperzeit ("clipper and scales time") of 1619–1623 was one of the most destructive monetary crises in German history, triggered largely by territorial mints — and opportunistic free cities like Aachen — deliberately debasing coinage to exploit fixed exchange rates. Authorities would collect full-weight coins, melt them, and reissue debased pieces at face value, pocketing the difference. The scheme collapsed catastrophically when markets adjusted and the debased coins flooded back to their issuers.
Aachen's participation was politically precarious — the city held imperial free status, yet its mint operated here in direct violation of imperial monetary ordinances.
