| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned and mirrored cypher of Landgrave Frederick I, formed by two interlaced 'F' monograms surmounted by a princely crown. A six-pointed star is positioned to each side of the monogram in the field. The overall design is rendered in a bold, simply engraved style typical of small copper coinage of the German states in the early eighteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick I of Hesse-Cassel held the unusual distinction of ruling simultaneously as King of Sweden from 1720 until his death in 1751, making him the only Landgrave to hold a foreign royal title in his own right rather than through dynastic merger. His Hessian administration was largely managed by subordinates while he divided his attention between Kassel and Stockholm. Small copper heller issues of this period were workhorse coins for local market transactions, struck at Kassel with little ceremony and circulated hard through the hands of peasants and tradespeople.
