Sede Vacante issues were struck by cathedral chapters during the vacancy between a prince-bishop's death and the election of his successor — a period in which the chapter held both ecclesiastical and temporal authority over the principality. This 1792 piece is historically peculiar: the Prince-Bishopric of Liège was collapsing around it. The Liège Revolution of 1789 had already driven out Prince-Bishop César-Constantin-François de Hoensbroeck, and by the time French Revolutionary forces annexed the territory in 1795, the institution issuing this coin had ceased to exist entirely.
The chapter struck it anyway, asserting a sovereignty that had weeks, not years, left to run.
