| Additional information |
Haldenstein was a tiny imperial lordship in the Graubünden region of what is now Switzerland, whose ruling counts held the right to strike coin largely because the surrounding Graubünden leagues lacked the political cohesion to stop them. Georg Philip — the last of the Schauenstein-Haldenstein line with meaningful minting ambitions — produced silver issues in the 1680s that circulated well beyond the lordship's negligible territorial footprint, absorbed into regional trade channels where the 15 Kreuzer denomination was a practical workhorse.
