| Beschrijving voorzijde | Full-length facing figure of St. Paul standing at center, robed and haloed, holding a sword upright in his right hand and a book in his left, with the initials S·P flanking the figure at mid-field. The circular Latin legend surrounds the periphery, reading MON CATH ECCL MONA, denoting the Monastic Cathedral Chapter of Münster. The design is rendered in a bold, provincial Baroque style characteristic of mid-17th-century German ecclesiastical coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cathedral Chapter of Münster operated as an independent ecclesiastical issuing authority throughout the seventeenth century, a privilege that survived even the upheavals of the Thirty Years' War. Chapter coinage of this period frequently circulated alongside — and in competition with — municipal issues from the city itself, creating persistent confusion that civic authorities repeatedly but unsuccessfully tried to resolve through ordinance.
The thirty-eight year span of this type reflects either a long-lived die or deliberate administrative inertia — chapter mints had little incentive to update undated or broadly dated copper fractions.
