| Additional information |
George I was already King of Great Britain when these thalers were struck, having acceded to the British throne in 1714 under the Act of Settlement. His Hanoverian territories remained a separate entity under the Holy Roman Empire, meaning this coin was issued by a ruling prince who simultaneously sat on the English throne — an arrangement that made Hanover something of a dynastic afterthought in his own lifetime. George never learned fluent English and spent as much time in Hanover as London allowed.
The Welter and Davenport references align cleanly here, with no significant die controversies known for this type across the decade-long run.
