| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Strasbourg maintained its status as a Free Imperial City throughout this period, but the Thirty Years' War — which ended in 1648 with the Peace of Westphalia — had devastated regional economies and disrupted silver supplies across the Rhineland. The city's mint continued striking through the conflict, supplying local commerce when imperial coinage was either hoarded or simply absent from circulation.
The 12 Kreuzer denomination, sometimes called a "Dreibätzner," sat at an awkward value in the fractional currency system and was phased out in many German states by mid-century. Strasbourg's persistence with the type through 1658 reflects the city's monetary independence before its eventual absorption into France under Louis XIV in 1681.
