| Additional information |
Reuss-Lobenstein-Ebersdorf was among the smallest sovereign territories in the German Confederation, covering barely a few dozen square miles and governing a population that never exceeded roughly 25,000. Henry LXXII — the numbering system used by the Reuss houses, which counted all male members of the dynasty sequentially from a medieval starting point regardless of branch — ruled this pocket principality until its absorption into the newly consolidated Principality of Reuss-Ebersdorf in 1848. This coin predates that merger by seven years.
