| Additional information |
George I spent virtually his entire reign after 1714 governing Britain, leaving Hanover administered by ministers and his son — a son he despised and had placed under house arrest following a bitter public quarrel in 1717. Coinage issued from Hanover during these years reflects that absentee rule: output was managed locally with little direct royal involvement, and the series shows considerable die variation across the period.
Welter 2258 is the primary reference for this denomination within the Calenberg-Hannover administrative grouping.
