| Beschrijving keerzijde | As a uniface or near-uniface hammered pfennig, the reverse presents an incuse mirror impression of the obverse design, showing the faint negative relief of the quartered Hohenzollern shield and flanking pellets. The surface is plain and unworked, with natural flow lines from the hammering process visible across the field. No inscription or additional device is present on the reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Burgraviate of Nuremberg was already a political anomaly by 1396 — the Hohenzollern burgraves held the title but had long since lost actual control of the city itself to the imperial free municipality below them. This coin was struck under the joint rule of John III and Frederick VI, the latter being the future Elector of Brandenburg who would acquire the Mark Brandenburg from Sigismund in 1415, effectively redirecting Hohenzollern ambition permanently northward and away from Franconia.
At 0.22 g, these tiny silver pfennigs were produced in enormous quantities for petty commerce and survive today in wildly variable condition owing to their fragile flans.
