A small horse-head mint mark appears to the left of the mint letter. The peripheral legend, separated from the central oval by a granulated border, reads 'KOEN·V·WESTPH·FR·PR·' (König von Westphalen, Französischer Prinz) along the upper arc and '1809' along the lower arc, all in Latin capitals. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Kingdom of Westphalia was Napoleon's showcase state — a proof of concept that French administrative and legal reforms could be transplanted wholesale onto German soil. Jérôme Bonaparte, installed as king in 1807 at age twenty-two, oversaw an ambitious monetary overhaul aligned with the Napoleonic decimal system, displacing a tangle of inherited German coinages. These pattern pieces represent the planning stage of that currency reform rather than its execution.
KM#95 never reached circulation. The kingdom itself collapsed in 1813 when Westphalian territory was overrun ahead of Napoleon's final defeats, leaving portions of the planned coinage series as patterns only.
