Aanvullende informatie

Ferdinand II's obsessive reconquest of Bohemia following the 1618 defenestration of Prague — and the crushing Catholic League victory at White Mountain in 1620 — provided the political will to reassert Habsburg monetary authority across the empire. Vienna thalers of this period were instruments of that reassertion as much as they were currency, circulating through territories that had only recently been brought back under imperial control by force.

Davenport's EC II listing places this among the earlier Vienna strikes of Ferdinand's long reign, before the minting reforms of the later 1620s tightened die standards.
