附加信息	Elizabeth Lucretia was the last of the Piast dynasty to rule Teschen, inheriting the duchy through a line of female succession after her father Adam Wenceslaus converted to Catholicism and died without male heirs. She governed under Habsburg suzerainty through some of the most destructive years of the Thirty Years' War, which ended in 1648 — just before these coins were struck. Small silver pfennig issues of this type were practical emergency of postwar fiscal stabilization, Teschen's economy having been badly disrupted by decades of troop movements and requisitioning across Silesia. Elizabeth Lucretia died in 1653, and the duchy reverted directly to the Habsburgs. These 1649–1650 issues are among the last coins struck under an autonomous Piast ruler anywhere in Silesia.
