背面描述	Plain, uniface reverse typical of bracteate coinage, showing a faint incuse mirror impression of the obverse design transferred through the thin billon flan during the striking process. The surface is unworked and shows the characteristic rough texture of hammered small denomination issues from the Zürich Mint.

附加信息	The Angster was the smallest denomination in Zürich's late medieval monetary hierarchy, a coin so marginal in value that municipally issued examples were frequently struck in highly debased billon — silver content often negligible enough to approach copper. HMZ 2#1158a places this piece within the city's autonomous coinage tradition, which Zürich exercised jealously as a free imperial city. At 0.19 grams, replacement striking was continuous; dies wore quickly and were replaced without ceremony, which accounts for the considerable die variety documented across the type.
