| Additional information |
The County of Montfort-Peggau was among the smallest and most financially marginal lordships in the Habsburg orbit, and its coinage rights were exercised sporadically and at modest scale. Anton III von Montfort ruled a territory whose minting activity was largely a matter of feudal privilege rather than economic necessity — the Holy Roman Empire's western fringes were thick with such petty coinages in billon, produced in short runs and absorbed quickly into regional circulation.
KM#101 is sparsely documented in the literature, and surviving examples are genuinely scarce.
