Beschrijving voorzijde Central field dominated by an ornate interlaced crowned cypher comprising the initials of Duke John William of Saxe-Eisenach, rendered in an elaborate baroque monogram beneath a ducal crown. The surrounding legend reads F. S. E. L. M., distributed around the periphery in Latin characters. The overall design is executed in a restrained relief typical of small German States coinage of the early eighteenth century.

Beschrijving keerzijde A floriated cross pattée occupies the upper portion of the field, displayed above a mural or arched crown, beneath which the numeral 3 denotes the denomination. The date 1716 is divided on either side of the cross, with the mint-master initials H and S placed in the lower field flanking the crowned numeral. The composition is characteristic of small-denomination German States billon or silver issues of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

John William ruled Saxe-Eisenach for less than a decade before the duchy reverted to Saxe-Weimar upon his death in 1729 without a male heir, ending the Eisenach line entirely. These tiny silver pieces were struck during a period when fractional coinage in the Ernestine duchies was notoriously inconsistent — multiple mints operating under loosely coordinated standards produced issues of wildly varying fineness, and 3 Pfennig pieces frequently fell below their nominal silver content.
