Description from the seller
GERMANY. Hamburg. 3 Pfennig. 1841.
- Value: 3 Pfennig.
- Year: 1841.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: H.S.K. Reverse: 3 PFENNIG · 1841.
- Grading: MS63 (NGC).
Copper coin of 3 Pfennig minted by the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg in 1841. The obverse features the distinctive crenellated gate of three towers, the heraldic emblem of Hamburg, crowned by two stars and accompanied at the bottom by the initials H.S.K. (Hamburger Scheidemünze), in a design of great simplicity and strong civic identity. The reverse shows the face value 3 Pfennig and the issue date, surrounded by a sober composition typical of fractional coins intended for daily circulation. The specimen remains in magnificent condition, with fully defined reliefs, homogeneous surfaces and an attractive original mint luster, characteristics fully in line with the MS63 grade given by NGC. This issue belongs to the monetary system of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, one of the leading commercial and financial centers of Europe during the 19th century, before its integration into the German unification process.
