| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays the crowned municipal arms of Haltern within an ornately decorated cartouche, the shield bearing an interlaced monogram or device typical of Westphalian civic coinage. The date 1624 appears prominently in the upper portion of the surrounding legend, with the city name legend distributed around the periphery within a beaded or dotted border. The overall design reflects the modest but characteristic style of early seventeenth-century German municipal copper coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Haltern was a small market town in Westphalia whose civic coinage rights were exercised only briefly and under pressing local need. This 1624 copper issue appeared during the early decades of the Thirty Years' War, when disrupted trade routes and hoarding had drained the region of reliable small change. Municipal authorities across the Holy Roman Empire stepped into that vacuum, producing low-denomination emergency coinages to keep local markets functioning. At 0.66 grams, this piece was barely worth striking — which is precisely why so few were made with any care for longevity.
