Additional information

Charles VI issued this Breslau thaler during the immediate aftermath of the War of the Spanish Succession, when Silesia remained under Habsburg administration — a situation that would last only until Frederick the Great seized the province in 1740. The Breslau mint was one of the most productive in the empire during this window, striking heavily to meet military and administrative payment demands following years of continental warfare.

The EC III attribution places it firmly within Davenport's exhaustive survey of German thalers; the .1 variety designation distinguishes it from related Breslau dies of the same reign.
