Obverse description Square copper klippe struck in emergency siege conditions. In the upper field, the denomination numeral '3' appears within a rectangular cartouche. Below, the crowned arms of Breslau are displayed — a crowned escutcheon bearing the date '1645' — with the mintmaster's initial 'W' placed beneath. To the right, a circular countermark within a dotted border bears the letters 'AS', likely an assayer or authorization mark. The overall design is primitive yet functional, consistent with wartime emergency coinage production.
