Additional information

Louis I of Württemberg-Urach ruled the partitioned county following the 1442 division of Württemberg between the Urach and Stuttgart lines — a split that generated distinct coinage from two competing branches of the same house. The schilling was the principal accounting unit driving minting policy in the Upper Swabian monetary zone during this period, with output shaped heavily by agreements among the Swabian imperial cities rather than by comital initiative alone.

KR#11.2 suggests a subtype distinction within the Louis I schilling series, likely a die or legend variant rather than a compositional change.
