附加信息	The "Six Brothers" Kipper coinage of 1622 takes its name from the six Ernestine dukes who jointly administered Saxe-Weimar during the catastrophic currency debasement of the Kipper- und Wipperzeit — roughly 1619 to 1623 — when virtually every German mint, large or small, raced to produce overvalued, underweight coins to extract maximum seigniorage before the inevitable collapse. Saxe-Weimar was no exception, and this 2 Gulden piece was struck well above its actual silver content's market value. The Kipper crisis ultimately forced the Imperial Circles to intervene, and a monetary recess of 1623 attempted to restore the pre-debasement standards. Most Kipper issues were recalled and reminted — which explains why survivors are scarce relative to original mintage volumes.
