| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field dominated by a large Gothic capital 'E', the initial of Einbeck, surmounted by an ornate crown. The mintmaster's initials 'A' and 'S' appear to the left and right of the letter's crossbar respectively. A circular legend reading 'MONO EINBECENS' runs along the periphery, separated from the central device by a plain inner border. The design is boldly struck in the early German civic coinage tradition. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The denomination and date are arranged in four lines across the central field, reading 'VI / MARIEN / GROSCH / 1671', with small rosette ornaments flanking the numeral 'VI' at the top. A circular legend 'VON FEINEM SILBER' surrounds the central inscription, attesting to the coin's fine silver content. The layout is characteristic of North German municipal coinage of the period, with bold relief lettering filling the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Einbeck's civic coinage rights were hard-won and frequently contested by the surrounding Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel duchy throughout the seventeenth century. The city leveraged its status as a former Hanseatic member to defend independent minting, though by 1671 that political leverage was eroding fast. This 6 Mariengroschen piece belongs to the last sustained phase of Einbeck's autonomous silver production before ducal pressure effectively ended the city's practical coinage independence within a generation.
