Billon coinage of this type circulated alongside heavier silver issues in a fractional system that saw constant pressure from debased imitations struck by smaller regional mints. The HMZ 2-175b variety falls within a production window spanning over two decades, and individual pieces vary noticeably in silver content as alloy standards drifted.
