Aanvullende informatie

George I Louis became Elector of Hanover in 1698 and inherited the British throne in 1714 under the Act of Settlement, never troubling himself to learn English and spending as much time back in Hanover as his ministers would permit. These ducats were struck concurrently with his British coinage, issued under his authority as Elector rather than as King — a legally distinct role that Brunswick-Lüneburg maintained jealously throughout the personal union. The Calenberg line's ducats of this period circulated primarily within the Empire's commercial networks, where the .986 fine gold standard held firm credibility against debased competitors.
