Henry XI ruled Reuss-Greiz from 1723 until his death in 1800, one of the longer reigns among the famously confusing Reuss naming conventions — every male in the elder line was named Heinrich, numbered sequentially from the start of each century. The 1/48 Thaler denomination was a workhorse of petty commerce in the fragmented German states, struck in billon precisely because the silver content barely mattered at this face value.
The Reuss-Greiz mint output from this period is sparsely documented outside Schneider & Knab.
