Charles Theodor ruled Jülich-Berg as part of his broader Palatinate-Sulzbach holdings, and the duchy's gold coinage of this period was produced primarily for presentation and trade rather than everyday commerce — ducats at this weight rarely changed hands in local markets. The Düsseldorf mint handled output for the duchy, though production runs for two-ducat pieces were never large, and survival rates among gold multiples from minor German states are notoriously low.
Noss's attribution places this among a tightly documented sequence of Berg gold issues, but individual die pairings within the series show enough variation to reward close comparison against the Noss plates.
