| Aanvullende informatie |
The Vicariat coinage was issued under a specific constitutional privilege of the Holy Roman Empire: during an imperial interregnum, the Elector of Saxony held the office of Imperial Vicar for the northern German territories, administering imperial authority until a new emperor was elected. Frederick Augustus I — better known as Augustus the Strong — exercised this right following the death of Emperor Joseph I in April 1711. The Vicariat issues of that year were as much political declarations as they were currency, asserting Saxon preeminence within the imperial hierarchy.
The 1711 interregnum was brief. Charles VI was elected in October of the same year.
