1 Albus - William VII squared year

The "squared year" variety — where the final digit of the date appears in a rotated or blocked form due to a damaged or improvised punch — is a known die curiosity in smaller German territorial issues of the late seventeenth century, where die cutting was often contracted to local craftsmen working without strict oversight from a central mint authority. Hesse-Cassel's minting operations under William VII were intermittent, and the Schütz reference dash indicating an unlisted or unpriced example suggests surviving specimens are too scarce to have established a reliable market baseline.
