| Additional information |
Hermann of Neuenahr ruled the County of Moers for a remarkably short window — he died in 1578, but his thalers were struck across just these two or three years, likely tied to a specific fiscal need rather than routine production. Moers was a small Rhine county perpetually caught between the ambitions of larger neighbors, and by the late 1560s the region was feeling the pressure of the early stages of what would become the Dutch Revolt.
Davenport's Germanic Thalers listing places this among the scarcer county-level issues of the lower Rhine.
