| Aanvullende informatie |
Christian Frederick Charles Alexander — the last Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach — was by 1770 already showing the administrative indifference that would culminate in his 1791 sale of the entire margraviate to Prussia, the only instance of a Hohenzollern territory being formally sold rather than inherited or conquered. His coinage from this period is accordingly unremarkable in ambition, struck to circulating standards for a territory whose ruler had quietly stopped investing in its future.
The Wilmersdörfer and Hahn references diverge slightly on die classifications for this type, suggesting more than one working die pair was in use during the 1770 emission.
