1 Halbschilling - Maximilian I

Maximilian I convened the Reichstag at Worms in 1495 — the same diet that produced the Ewiger Landfriede and launched his sweeping monetary reforms. The Halbschilling belongs to that reorganization effort, an attempt to impose a coherent imperial coinage system over a patchwork of territorial mints that had operated with near-total autonomy for generations. It largely failed; the princes ignored Vienna's standards within years.

Levinson I-368 is a scarce type. Most surviving examples show significant wear, consistent with genuine circulation in south German and Austrian markets before the reforms collapsed.
