| Additional information |
Mühlhausen was one of the handful of Free Imperial Cities in Thuringia that retained the right to strike its own coinage well into the eighteenth century — a privilege increasingly under pressure from larger territorial powers consolidating monetary systems across the Holy Roman Empire. The city's billon issues of this denomination circulated primarily in local trade, the long date range reflecting reuse of dies or successive restrikes rather than continuous annual production.
The city lost its imperial free status entirely in 1803 during the Napoleonic reorganization of German territories, ending over five centuries of autonomous coinage.
