| Aanvullende informatie |
Melchior of Hatzfeldt-Gleichen was one of the most decorated Imperial commanders of the Thirty Years' War, winning engagements at Vlotho and Jankau before the Peace of Westphalia ended his campaigning career in 1648. The County of Hatzfeld issued coinage only briefly, and this Thaler — struck eighteen years after the war's end — almost certainly reflects the family's postwar drive to assert comital dignity through the one medium that announced sovereign pretension most unambiguously.
KM#1 designation confirms this as the sole taler type recorded for the county.
