Additional information

Hannover's civic coinage of this period operated under the monetary framework of the Lower Saxon Circle, where the groschen served as the dominant transaction coin for regional trade. The city's minting rights were periodically contested by the Welf dukes of Brunswick-Lüneburg, making autonomous municipal issues from this window genuinely short-lived.

MB#2 places this among the earliest documented civic issues from Hannover proper.
