| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays the large arms of the imperial city of Weissenburg am Rhein: a fortified city gate featuring two crenellated towers flanking an arched gateway, with the lower portion of the shield bearing decorative detailing. The arms are set within a wreath border of laurel branches. The circumferential Latin legend reads * MON * NOV * IMP * CIVIT * WEISSENBVRG * A * RH, separated by rosette stops, running between an inner beaded border and an outer milled rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Weissenburg (modern Weißenburg in Bavaria) struck thalers under imperial city privilege during one of the most economically catastrophic periods in German history — the Thirty Years' War. The 1623–1632 window spans the worst of the currency debasement crisis known as the Kipper- und Wipperzeit, when dozens of mints across the Empire were striking debased small coin at ruinous rates. A city maintaining full-weight thaler production during this period was making a deliberate statement about creditworthiness, not sentiment.
Weissenburg's output was modest by any measure, which accounts for the rarity of surviving examples today.
