背面描述	Denomination and legend arranged in five horizontal lines across the field, flanked by rosettes on either side of the numeral 3 at the top. The inscription reads the face value in abbreviated form followed by the Brandenburg provincial monetary designation and the date, reflecting the coin's status as a local circulation issue. The lettering is bold and blocky, characteristic of the utilitarian style of Prussian minor coinage of the period.

附加信息	Frederick I was crowned King in Prussia in 1701 — pointedly not King of Prussia, a distinction forced by diplomatic compromise with the Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I, who refused to recognize a fully sovereign Prussian monarchy over imperial territory. These small billon pieces were among the first coins struck under the new royal title, issued in the opening years of a reign that had spent decades and enormous sums engineering the elevation from Elector to King. The .125 fineness places this squarely in the debased petty coinage of the Northern German states, where Kipper und Wipper-era degradation of small denominations had never fully recovered.
