| Aanvullende informatie |
Zug was among the smallest and least wealthy of the Swiss cantons, and its independent silver coinage of the early seventeenth century reflects the political pressure on minor states to assert monetary credibility during a period when the Thirty Years' War was beginning to fragment Central European trade networks. This Dicken — a denomination rooted in the thick-flan coinage traditions of the late medieval Swiss confederacy — represents one of the more short-lived cantonal issues, struck across just two years before Zug's minting activity lapsed again.
The HMZ reference places this among a tightly documented group with limited surviving population.
