| Aanvullende informatie |
Christian August of Holstein-Gottorp held the Bishopric of Lübeck as a Protestant administrator — the see had been secularized in all but name since the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, functioning as a territorial possession of the Holstein-Gottorp dynasty rather than an ecclesiastical office with any genuine church authority. His tenure lasted from 1705 until his death in 1726, and thaler-sized silver issues from his administration are scarce, reflecting the modest fiscal apparatus of a small north German territory issuing prestige coinage more for dynastic display than commercial circulation.
