| Additional information |
George III's Hanoverian territories operated entirely separately from his British crown finances, and the Calenberg-Hannover mint was under obligation to the Holy Roman Empire's coinage conventions — not Westminster. This sixth-thaler denomination was struck during the years of American Revolutionary War, when British treasury pressure was considerable but had no direct bearing on Hanoverian minting decisions. The two roles, King of Great Britain and Elector of Hanover, remained constitutionally distinct until 1837.
