life and work

Moritz Borchmann was mentioned in the middle of the Thirty Years War and from 1628 in the Hanover coin files .

In 1636, the year of the residence recession contract by Duke Georg von Calenberg , the delivery of two bottles of Borchmann's for the homage was recorded in a document. Together with his colleague Hans Rhaders , the two of them delivered two "internally and externally owed" bottles, for which their journeymen were rewarded with 18 groschen " tip " for their work, while the masters themselves charged the lot at 20 groschen each.

In 1638 Borchmann's official brother, the later mint master Andreas Scheele , married one or the sister of Moritz Borchmann in the Marktkirche in Hanover.

In 1663 Borchmann made the sign for the welcome from the pewter of the masons 'and stonemasons' guild, which is labeled "Cord Distel 1663", the master mason and stonemason who died in 1669 and who donated the welcome - with the mint mark Borchmanns.
