Stolberg's joint coinage of this period reflects the county's partition among the three ruling lines following the division of 1429, which left the territory administered by competing branches of the same dynasty for generations. Henry XIX, Henry XX, and Botho II issuing under a single type was not collaboration so much as obligation — the county's mint rights required collective authorization when territorial shares were held concurrently. The arrangement was administratively awkward and short-lived, which is precisely why the type spans only a two-year window.
