| Beschrijving voorzijde | The crowned coat of arms of the Duchy of Nassau occupies the central field, depicting a lion rampant to the left on a field strewn with seven billets (bezants), rendered in precise heraldic style. The shield is surmounted by a ducal crown. A circular legend in Latin characters runs along the periphery, enclosed between an inner and outer beaded border (grenetis). |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nassau's billon coinage of the late 1830s reflects the duchy's awkward monetary position within the emerging German customs union, the Zollverein, which Nassau had joined in 1835. The 6 Kreuzer denomination sat uncomfortably between the larger silver issues and the copper small change, struck in billon precisely because the duchy lacked the fiscal confidence to commit to either.
Duke William of Nassau ruled for over fifty years, one of the longest reigns among the German petty states, yet his coinage series is rarely collected with any systematic attention. KM#58 was produced across only two years before the type was abandoned.
