| Beschrijving voorzijde | Shield bearing the arms of Waldois — an ox head — displayed centrally in the field. The abbreviated Latin legend of the issuing abbot, Arnold, surrounds the shield, reading ARNOL(D). (D.G.) A(B). COR(B)(E)(I)(N)., identifying him as Abbot of Corvey by the grace of God. The coin is crudely struck, typical of small copper pfennig coinage of the period, with irregular flan edges. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Corvey, founded in 822 on the Weser as a Benedictine daughter house of Corbie, held imperial abbey status and the right of coinage for centuries — but by the Thirty Years' War its finances and physical fabric were in ruins. Arnold of Waldois governed the abbey during some of the most destructive years of that conflict, when Westphalia was repeatedly fought over, occupied, and stripped. This tiny copper issue, dated to 1641–42, almost certainly reflects emergency small-change needs rather than any assertion of prestige.
The Peace of Westphalia was still years away when these were struck.
