| Aanvullende informatie |
The 'Sortengulden' designation reflects the coin's role in the complex currency sorting agreements negotiated among Rhenish states in the 1670s, where specific silver pieces were designated acceptable for cross-territorial settlement. Damian Hartard von der Leyen held the archbishopric from 1675 until his death in 1678 — a brief tenure that makes his coinage relatively scarce across all denominations.
Production fell under the shadow of the Franco-Dutch War, which disrupted Rhine trade corridors and created urgent demand for reliable silver specie throughout the ecclesiastical territories of the Main valley.
