| Aanvullende informatie |
Maximilian Emanuel of Bavaria held Namur — along with most of the Spanish Netherlands — as governor-general, a position he exploited aggressively to fund his own military ambitions. His decision to back Louis XIV during the War of the Spanish Succession cost him everything: he was placed under Imperial ban in 1706 and stripped of his Bavarian territories. The Southern Netherlands, Namur included, came under Allied occupation, yet coins continued to be struck in his name through the period of contested control.
The 1712 date places this piece in the final phase of that conflict, just a year before the Treaties of Utrecht began unwinding the entire political settlement that had kept Maximilian Emanuel's name on the local coinage.
