Additional information

Nuremberg's status as a Free Imperial City was already a legal fiction by the mid-1790s — the city was effectively bankrupt, its independence collapsing under debt accumulated over decades of administrative dysfunction. These pfennig were struck in the city's final years of autonomous coinage; Nuremberg was absorbed by Bavaria in 1806, ending nearly six centuries of independent minting.
