Emmerich Joseph von Breidbach-Bürresheim died in February 1774 after a tenure as Archbishop-Elector of Mainz marked by Enlightenment sympathies unusual for the ecclesiastical princes of the Rhine. The Sterbetaler — a death thaler struck to commemorate a deceased ruler — was a well-established tradition in the German ecclesiastical states, and Mainz issued this fractional eighth to serve those who couldn't afford the full thaler denomination.
Fractional Sterbetaler are considerably harder to locate than their full-sized counterparts, produced in smaller quantities for a memorial market that was already a niche one.
