| Beschrijving keerzijde | Plain reverse with no design elements or inscriptions, consistent with the simple single-sided striking technique employed for small-denomination hammered copper Pfennig coinage of this era. The surface shows irregular flan texture and tool marks typical of municipal emergency-style coinage produced during the Kipper und Wipper inflationary period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Berlin and Kölln were twin cities straddling the Spree — legally distinct municipalities that shared a mint and, by 1621, a deepening fiscal crisis driven by the Kipper- und Wipperzeit, the catastrophic currency debasement that swept the German states in the opening years of the Thirty Years' War. Small copper pfennig issues like this one filled the void left as silver coinage was systematically debased and hoarded. At 0.31 grams, this piece was struck light even by the standards of the moment.
