| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents the denomination and date in three lines across the central field, reading III. / PFENNIG / 1622, with the numeral expressed in Roman notation and the denomination spelled out in full. The flat, unadorned field and absence of any border device beyond the irregular hammered rim are characteristic of minor copper coinage of the period. The lettering is bold and raised, though showing evidence of die wear and uneven strike common to hammered Pfennig coinage of the Thirty Years' War era. |

Struck during the Kipper- und Wipperzeit — the catastrophic currency debasement crisis that swept the Holy Roman Empire between roughly 1619 and 1623 — this small copper issue emerged from a monetary environment of deliberate fraud at the state level. Princes and minting authorities across the Empire raced to produce debased coinage, spend it quickly across neighboring borders, and collect sound money in return before the inevitable collapse. Mecklenburg-Schwerin was no bystander to this practice.
