1 Groschen - Christian II, John George I and August

Issued jointly under three co-ruling princes — a dynastic arrangement that was both legally and administratively awkward — this groschen reflects the fractious nature of Albertinian Saxon succession in the years before electoral consolidation. Christian II held the electorate, but his younger brothers John George and August retained co-regency rights under the terms of their father's will. The arrangement lasted only until Christian II's death in 1611, at which point John George I finally ruled alone.
