| Beschrijving keerzijde | Large Roman numeral VI occupying the central field, denoting the face value of six Pfennige. The numeral is enclosed within an ornate beaded inner circle bordered by a decorative scrollwork frame composed of lobed and foliate elements, characteristic of mid-sixteenth-century German municipal coinage. The surrounding field is plain, and the flan edges are irregular, consistent with hammered production. No legend is present on this side. |

Münster's civic coinage of this period operated under persistent tension with the Prince-Bishopric, whose authorities repeatedly contested the city's right to strike independent issues. Small copper pfennig denominations were tolerated largely because episcopal mints had little interest in the unglamorous business of petty coinage — leaving the city council to fill the gap for local market transactions. By 1560, Münster had been rebuilding civic normalcy for over two decades following the catastrophic Anabaptist Kingdom, which ended in 1535 with the torture and execution of its leaders and left the city's institutions severely disrupted.
