Aanvullende informatie

Johann Christian and Georg Rudolf were brothers ruling jointly over Liegnitz-Brieg, a Silesian duchy caught between Habsburg pressure and Protestant solidarity at precisely the moment the Thirty Years' War ignited. The joint coinage issued under their names spans almost exactly the war's opening phase — the Bohemian revolt, the Defenestration of Prague in 1618, the brief reign of the Winter King. Georg Rudolf was notably sympathetic to the Protestant cause and would spend years navigating Ferdinand II's attempts to reassert Catholic authority over Silesian nobles.

The Davenport attribution ST#7718 places this among the Silesian thalers most frequently encountered with die alignment irregularities, a product of multiple working dies produced under provincial rather than imperial mint supervision.
