Anhalt was a patchwork of semi-independent duchies — Anhalt-Dessau, Anhalt-Köthen, and Anhalt-Bernburg — that only unified into a single Duchy of Anhalt in 1863. Notes issued under the Staats-Schulden-Verwaltung (state debt administration) therefore straddle that constitutional transition, and earlier dates in this series were authorized before unification was legally complete.
Giesecke & Devrient had been established in Leipzig only in 1852, and Anhalt was among their early state clients. The Thaler itself was obsoleted by the introduction of the Mark system following German unification in 1871.
