| Reverse description | The reverse displays a three-line central inscription stating the denomination and date, arranged within the plain field without a surrounding legend. The numeral 'III' and the word 'PFENNIG' are separated and flanked by rosette ornaments, with an additional rosette positioned at the foot of the design, lending a decorative symmetry to the composition. The date 1759 appears on the third line, also accompanied by a flanking rosette. This simple typographic layout is typical of small-denomination copper coinage from the German states of the period. |
