| Aanvullende informatie |
Adalbert II von Walderdorff served as Prince-Bishop of Fulda from 1757 until his death in 1759 — a reign of barely two years, which accounts entirely for the scarcity of coinage bearing his name. Fulda's mint was never prolific, and the truncated episcopate left little opportunity for large-scale production across any denomination.
The abbey at Fulda had held imperial immediacy since the Carolingian period, giving its bishops the right to strike coin as secular princes of the Empire. By the mid-eighteenth century that privilege was largely ceremonial in economic terms, the issues serving administrative and prestige functions more than genuine monetary circulation.
