| Aanvullende informatie |
Frankfurt's annual shooting festival — the Freischießen — was one of the most politically charged civic events in the Holy Roman Empire. Guilds, city councils, and visiting dignitaries competed for prizes, and the commemorative thalers issued for these occasions served the very practical function of prize money. The 1716 issue falls during a period when Frankfurt was navigating considerable pressure from both Habsburg imperial authority and the ambitions of surrounding territorial princes.
Davenport's Germanic Talers II attribution places this among a well-documented series of Frankfurt shooting thalers, though individual die marriages within the type show variation in the depth of the lettering on the edge.
