| Additional information |
Jever's fractional billon issues of this period reflect the chronic small-change shortage that plagued the smaller north German lordships throughout the late seventeenth century. The lordship itself passed through a complicated succession — from the Anhalt-Zerbst line ultimately to Russian imperial hands by the mid-eighteenth century — but these pfennig-scale pieces were the workhorse currency of local markets long before that dynastic complexity resolved itself.
