| Obverse description | Central device depicting the arms of Hamelin: a stylized fortified tower or gate above a wheel, rendered in the crude hammered style typical of early 17th-century German municipal copper coinage. The design is contained within a roughly circular flan with no distinct border. The surrounding legend reads MONETA NOVA HAMELENSIS, identifying this as new coinage of Hamelin. The overall strike is characteristic of emergency or low-denomination municipal issues of the Kipper und Wipper period. |
