Additional information

Saxe-Meiningen was one of the smallest and most financially constrained of the German duchies, and its coinage issues under George II were produced in limited quantities by the Imperial Mint system — the duchy had no mint of its own. The 1908–1913 run coincides almost exactly with George II's final years; he died in 1914, and the duchy itself was absorbed into Thuringia by 1920, making this effectively the last regular silver series the state would ever authorize.

Low mintage figures across the type push survivorship into genuinely scarce territory for a Wilhelmine-era 3 Mark.
