| Additional information |
Victor II Friedrich ruled Anhalt-Bernburg from 1721 until his death in 1765, presiding over a principality so small and financially constrained that its copper pfennig coinage served largely local markets with minimal broader circulation. The long production window of this issue — spanning the Seven Years' War — means examples that did circulate absorbed considerable handling during a period of significant disruption to central German commerce.
