The League of God's House — Gotteshausbund in German — was one of three leagues that would eventually unite to form the Graubünden canton of Switzerland, and its independent coinage authority in the sixteenth century was exercised sparingly. Thalers from this issuer are among the rarest Swiss cantonal pieces of the period, reflecting both the league's limited minting activity and the relatively brief window during which it struck large silver.
The Hahn 41 attribution places this squarely within a small, well-documented die sequence.
