| Aanvullende informatie |
Alexander Sigismund von Pfalz-Neuburg was appointed Bishop of Augsburg in 1690 through the direct influence of his brother, Elector Philipp Wilhelm of the Palatinate — a straightforward exercise of Wittelsbacher dynastic leverage over ecclesiastical appointments that the chapter was in no position to resist. His episcopate coincided with the long aftershocks of the Thirty Years' War still reverberating through Swabian monetary circulation, with debased small coinage from multiple authorities competing in local markets.
The 2 Kreuzer was the workhorse denomination of south German daily commerce. Augsburg's episcopal mint output for these small silver pieces was modest, and survivors in respectable condition are scarcer than their nominal status would suggest.
