Aanvullende informatie

Rudolf II's court at Prague was a magnet for alchemists, astronomers, and occultists — Tycho Brahe and Kepler both worked under his patronage — but the Hall mint in the Tyrol operated under the authority of the Inner Austrian administration largely independent of that imperial circus. By 1610, Rudolf was losing his grip on the Habsburg lands entirely, having been forced by his brother Matthias to surrender Austria, Hungary, and Moravia following the Bruderstreit, the fraternal power struggle that consumed his final years.

The Hall mint's output for this year is notably thin. Rudolf died in January 1612, and thaler production wound down sharply as his political authority collapsed.
