| Aanvullende informatie |
Württemberg-Weiltingen was one of the smallest and most financially precarious of the Württemberg partition territories, and Julius Frederick's kipper coinage of 1623 sits squarely within the broader Kipper und Wipper crisis — a currency debasement spiral that swept the Holy Roman Empire beginning around 1619. Minters across hundreds of territories, many of them minor lordships desperate for revenue, debased their silver coinage aggressively, then spent the degraded pieces across neighboring borders before the fraud could be detected.
At 17.34g this piece is heavier than most kipper issues, suggesting it may have been struck closer to the crisis's end, when imperial pressure forced some mints back toward honest weights.
