| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device features the arms of the city of Haguenau: a shield bearing the distinctive four-leaf clover or quatrefoil design of the city's heraldic arms, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The circular legend surrounds the shield, identifying the issuing city. The hammered flan shows characteristic irregularity typical of early seventeenth-century municipal coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hagenau's municipal coinage of this period was minted under mounting pressure — the Thirty Years' War had reached Alsace by the mid-1620s, disrupting trade routes and forcing many smaller civic authorities to issue emergency small change to keep local commerce functioning. The city's right to strike coin was a jealously guarded privilege, and these 2 Kreuzer pieces represent one of its last exercises of that right before imperial consolidation steadily eroded municipal minting authority across the region.
The E&L#64 reference places this squarely in Engel and Lehr's corpus of Alsatian civic issues — a relatively thin cataloguing tradition compared to imperial series, which partly explains why die varieties for Hagenau remain underreported.
