| Aanvullende informatie |
Clemens Wenzeslaus of Saxony held the Bishopric of Augsburg from 1768 until secularization dissolved it in 1803, but his ambitions ran considerably larger — he simultaneously held the Electorate of Trier, making him one of the last great pluralist prince-bishops of the Holy Roman Empire. This quarter kreuzer was struck in the early years of his Augsburg tenure, when copper fractionals were being pushed into circulation to address chronic small-change shortages across the southwestern German states. Mayer's attribution distinguishes several die marriages within this type.
