| Aanvullende informatie |
Wallenstein received the Duchy of Friedland from Emperor Ferdinand II in 1622 as reward for his role in suppressing the Bohemian revolt, and with it came the right to strike coin — a privilege he exercised almost immediately and with evident enthusiasm. This half thaler dates to the height of his first generalship, two years before Ferdinand, pressured by the imperial princes, forced his dismissal at the Diet of Regensburg in 1630.
Friedland coinage is scarce in all denominations. The duchy's minting operation was short-lived, ending definitively with Wallenstein's assassination at Cheb in February 1634.
