| Additional information |
Frederick VII Magnus ruled Baden-Durlach from 1677 until his death in 1709, navigating the margraviate through some of its most destructive decades — French forces under Turenne and later Villars repeatedly ravaged the upper Rhine territories, with Durlach itself burned in 1689 during the Nine Years' War. Coinage continuity across this reign is remarkable given how thoroughly the region's infrastructure was disrupted.
Wielandt's cataloguing of this type places it firmly within a local emission policy that persisted despite the margraviate's limited minting capacity and frequent reliance on neighboring facilities.
