| Additional information |
Ferdinand II ruled Tyrol as an archduke from 1564 until his death in 1595, and his Hall mint was among the most productive in the Habsburg lands — Hall, on the Inn River, had been a major silver-striking center since the 1470s, benefiting directly from the Tyrolean and Bohemian mining boom. These thalers circulated widely across the Holy Roman Empire and beyond, frequently encountered in Baltic and Levantine trade hoards.
The date range on this type reflects a long obverse die pairing rather than an extended reign — Ferdinand died in 1595, and pieces dated after that point were struck posthumously under Maximilian III using remaining dies.
