| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features two conjoined heraldic shields — the left bearing a rampant lion, the right divided quarterly — enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The denomination IIII K (4 Kreuzer) appears prominently above the shields in the upper field. The mintmark F (for Fürth) is placed below the shields. The surrounding legend, separated from the inner circle by a rope-like border, reads the ruler's titles in Latin, with the date appearing at the beginning of the legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Joachim Ernest ruled Brandenburg-Ansbach from 1603 until his death in 1625, and his later coinage falls squarely within the monetary chaos of the Kipper- und Wipperzeit — the "clipping and see-saw" inflation crisis of 1619–1623 that devastated the small German states. Princes across the Empire debased their coinage aggressively to extract seigniorage profit, then blamed neighboring mints. Brandenburg-Ansbach was no innocent party.
The 4 Kreuzer denomination was a workhorse of this inflationary period, struck in quantity by dozens of imperial territories simultaneously, which makes attribution to specific mints genuinely difficult even for specialists.
