1 Thaler - Charles Eugen

Charles Eugene had ruled Württemberg since 1744 and spent most of his reign in chronic fiscal crisis, partly the result of maintaining an oversized court and a standing army he could not quite afford. By the 1780s his relationship with the estates had stabilized somewhat after decades of bitter constitutional conflict — a dispute serious enough that it had attracted the intervention of both the Emperor and foreign powers. This thaler was struck relatively late in that long reign, a period of comparative calm after the storm.

The Dav GT II reference places it within the German Taler series with standard Stuttgart mint production.
