| Aanvullende informatie |
Swedish-controlled Pomerania retained the right to strike its own coinage well into the late 17th century — a concession rooted in the Peace of Westphalia (1648), which confirmed Swedish sovereignty over the territory and left its administrative apparatus largely intact. Charles XI, who had drastically curtailed the Swedish nobility's autonomy through his reduktion policy at home, exercised no such centralizing pressure on the Pomeranian mint at Stettin, which continued operating under its own authority throughout this period.
Production across the 1690–1695 window was modest, and surviving examples in better preservation are scarce — Stettin's output in gold was never high-volume. Ahlström's enumeration of this type lists only a handful of die combinations.
