Swedish Pomerania's ⅔ Thaler denomination was struck to circulate within the North German monetary system, where the 2/3 Thaler — equivalent to the Gulden — had become the dominant trade denomination following the Thirty Years' War. Charles XI was a minor when this piece was struck in 1673, with the regency government effectively controlling Swedish imperial administration in Pomerania. The regency period ended abruptly the following year when Brandenburg and Denmark exploited the Great Elector's campaigns to strip Sweden of much of its Pomeranian territory during the Scanian War, making issues from this narrow window historically compressed.
