| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick William of Westfalen served as Prince-Bishop of Hildesheim from 1763 until his death in 1789, a tenure that coincided with mounting fiscal pressure on the ecclesiastical principalities of the Holy Roman Empire. The Bishopric of Hildesheim had already spent much of the seventeenth century fighting off Prussian territorial encroachment, and the Seven Years' War — concluded just five years before this thaler was struck — had left many of the smaller German states scrambling to reassert economic presence through coinage.
Davenport's attribution places this squarely within the German Taler series, cross-referenced in Mehl's Hildesheim listings at #720.
