Additional information

Holstein-Schaumburg-Pinneberg was already a county in terminal fragmentation by the late sixteenth century, its territories divided and contested among collateral lines with diminishing political coherence. Adolphus XIII ruled a shrinking inheritance, and his coinage output was correspondingly limited. The 1589 Thaler sits in a short series produced across his reign before the county's absorption into neighboring territories accelerated after his death in 1601.

Weinmeister 31 is among the scarcer Schaumburg-Pinneberg references to locate in trade, appearing infrequently even in specialist German regional sales.
