| Aanvullende informatie |
This three-name pfennig reflects a peculiar constitutional moment in Albertine Saxony: Christian II died in June 1611, but this 1609 piece already bears all three brothers' names because the electorate was jointly administered by Christian II alongside his younger brothers John George I and August from 1591 onward. The arrangement was unusual even by the fragmented standards of German territorial governance, and coins bearing all three names span only the years of that co-regency.
Kohl 129 places this among several closely related pfennig dies from the Dresden and Colditz minting operations of the period. Silver pfennigs of this joint issue circulated heavily and survivors in collectible condition are genuinely scarce.
