1 Pfennig - John III Hals

John III Hals ruled Leuchtenberg during a period of steady territorial decline for the landgraviate — a minor dynasty that had been selling off holdings since the 14th century to cover mounting debts, largely to the Wittelsbachs. Coins of this type circulated in a region increasingly absorbed by Bavaria, which would eventually extinguish Leuchtenberg's independence altogether in 1646.

The Friedl#45d attribution places this among the documented die varieties for the type, though surviving examples are scarce enough that census populations remain unreliable.
