| Reverse description | Central field contains a three-line denomination inscription reading 'VIII / PFENIG / 16+11', indicating the face value of eight Pfennig and the date of issue, all within a plain rectangular or oval frame. The surrounding circular Latin legend carries the continuation of the count's titles referencing Lichtenberg, Ochsenstein, and related lordships. The lettering is boldly struck in the hammered style, with characteristic irregularities in letter spacing and alignment. The reverse composition is straightforward and utilitarian, consistent with small-denomination billon issues of the period. The plain field surrounding the central panel bears no additional decorative elements. |
