| Aanvullende informatie |
Sede Vacante coins were struck by cathedral chapters during the vacancy between a bishop's death and the election of his successor — a period in which the chapter assumed governing authority and, crucially, the right to mint. Münster's 1761 vacancy followed the death of Clemens August of Bavaria, who had simultaneously held five northwestern German bishoprics. The scramble to fill his sees was a minor diplomatic event in itself.
These issues had a short production window by definition, which keeps surviving quantities low.
