附加信息	Ferdinand II's Bohemian coinage of this period emerged from one of the most economically destructive episodes in Central European history: the so-called Kipper- und Wipperzeit, a currency debasement crisis that swept the Holy Roman Empire between roughly 1619 and 1623 and saw hundreds of minor mints flood circulation with grossly underweight silver. The Kuttenberg facility — Kutná Hora, historically one of the great silver-producing centers of medieval Europe — resumed striking quality large-denomination pieces partly as a deliberate policy to reassert monetary credibility after the chaos. The dating range coincides almost exactly with Ferdinand's forced re-Catholicization of Bohemia following the Battle of White Mountain in 1620.
