| Aanvullende informatie |
Corvey, the Benedictine abbey on the Weser founded in 822, held the status of an Imperial Abbey — answerable to the Emperor alone, not to any territorial prince. That independence included the right to strike coin, though by the early eighteenth century such ecclesiastical minting rights were increasingly contested by neighboring secular powers. Maximilian von Horrich served as Prince-Abbot from 1714 until 1721, a tenure short enough that his coinage is scarce across all denominations.
The Ilisch/Schwede reference distinguishes this as die state A/a, placing it among the earliest strikes of the issue.
