| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central shield bearing the arms of Mecklenburg — the crowned bull's head — enclosed within a beaded or linear inner circle. The heraldic device is rendered in the style typical of mid-16th century German hammered coinage. The surrounding legend, in Latin, reads IOHAN. ALBER(T)(V)(S). DEI. GR(A)., identifying the issuing duke John Albert I by name and invoking divine grace. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John Albert I of Mecklenburg was among the earliest German princes to formally adopt Lutheranism, doing so in 1549 — just three years before this coin was struck. The Sechsling denomination served the fractional currency needs of a duchy still reorganizing its ecclesiastical and administrative finances following the Reformation settlement. Mecklenburg's mint output in this period was modest, and the 1552 issues are correspondingly scarce in any condition.
