INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
We are pleased to present the completely revised and updated fifth edition of the Standard Catalog of World Coins 1701-1800. This edition not only contains nearly five years of market adjustments, it provides expanded descriptions, pricing in up to five grades of preservation and hundreds of new images. And market adjustments is certainly where things have been quite active. Gold and silver bullion prices are at new all-time highs and the values represented in this volume certainly have taken into account those new levels. This volume contains a wealth of data for the German States and the Holy Roman Empire, France, Great Britain, Spain, Russia and Mexico as well as additions to many other countries throughout the book. Concise listings of minors and fractional issues, which have generally been available to collectors and dealers only in long out-of-print, difficult to locate, non-English references, are presented here in an easy-to-use format, making this catalog an excellent one-stop resource. In keeping with the traditions that have been held in focus with the Standard Catalog of World Coins from the very first edition, this volume is organized in a user-friendly format. An alphabetical sort order has been incorporated for countries of issue. An effort has been made to indicate each change in political structure or issuing authority and its associated coinage. The listings are generally arranged by denomination, which now appear with each listing. Coins are heavily illustrated by basic types, to the point that there is a virtual certainty you will find a photo match to the designs, or at least a clear word description of any 18th century coins that may come into your possession. To facilitate the easy identification and attribution of coins of the era, this volume features numerous helpful mint and privy mark charts in the introductions. The Standard Catalog of World Coins 1701-1800 5th Edition is the result of nearly 40 years of research by more than 200 respected numismatic experts around the world. True to the stated objective of the original Standard Catalog of World Coins (published in 1971), this edition augments the current family of five century reference catalogs, which conveniently replace a shelf of often-elusive specialized books, many of which are obscure and when found, very expensive. The updated fifth edition provided an opportunity for focus on some specific areas long in need of heavy revision, including pricing throughout. More detail and improved descriptions are found in every country. The result is a nearly 1,500-page book complete with detailed information no collector or dealer can do without. Does this mean this Standard Catalog of World Coins 1701-1800 volume represents unquestioned completeness of coverage for the era? No. Is it a definitive work, on the basis of authoritativeness and exhaustiveness? Yes. Is it the ultimate word on the subject that will ever be published? We certainly hope not. What this is, in effect, is a living and breathing book. This is a reference that will grow and benefit your future interests, in the presentation of successor editions, to the measure of what you, the user, contribute to make it something more than it presently is. Toward that end, you are invited make that encouraged to point out errors and omissions and challenge any content you have reason to question. Perhaps together we can advance this massive base of knowledge. Should you have new listing information or a coin for possible illustration consideration, we would welcome correspondence to George.Cuhaj@fwmedia.com. Coins for illustration should be scanned at 100 percent size, 300 dpi and sent as a jpeg with the mm size of the coin under consideration, as well as the catalog number reference and the country of origin. We hope you find this new edition meets your collecting needs. Enjoy your hobby. George S. Cuhaj, Editor Tom Michael, Market Analyst

ARRANGEMENT
Countries are arranged alphabetically. Political changes within a country are arranged chronologically. In countries where Rulers are the single most significant political entity a chronological arrangement by Ruler has been employed. Distinctive sub-geographic regions are listed alphabetically following the countries main listings. A few exceptions to these rules may exist. Refer to the Country Index. Diverse coinage types relating to fabrication methods, revaluations, denomination systems, non-circulating categories and such have been identified, separated and arranged in logical fashion. Chronological arrangement is employed for most circulating coinage, i.e., Hammered coinage will normally precede Milled coinage, monetary reforms will flow in order of their institution. Non-circulating types such as Essais, Pieforts, Patterns, Trial Strikes, Mint and Proof sets will follow the main listings, as will Medallic coinage and Token coinage. Within a coinage type coins will be listed by denomination, from smallest to largest. Numbered types within a denomination will be ordered by their first date of issue.
IDENTIFICATION
The most important step in the identification of a coin is the determination of the nation of origin. This is generally easily accomplished where English-speaking lands are concerned, however, use of the country index is sometimes required. The coins of Great Britain provide an interesting challenge. For hundreds of years the only indication of the country of origin was in the abbreviated Latin legends. In recent times there have been occasions when there has been no indication of origin. Only through the familiarity of the monarchical portraits, symbols and legends or indication of currency system are they identifiable. The coins of many countries beyond the English-language realm, such as those of French, Italian or Spanish heritage, are also quite easy to identify through reference to their legends, which appear in the national languages based on Western alphabets. In many instances the name is spelled exactly the same in English as in the national language, such as France; while in other cases it varies only slightly, like Italia for Italy, Belgique or Belgie for Belgium, Brasil for Brazil and Danmark for Denmark. This is not always the case, however, as in Norge for Norway, Espana for Spain, Sverige for Sweden and Helvetia for Switzerland. Some other examples include: DEUTSCHES REICH - Germany 1873-1945 BUNDESREPUBLIC DEUTSCHLAND Federal Republic of Germany.
DATING
Coin dating is the final basic attribution consideration. Here, the problem can be more difficult because the reading of a coin date is subject not only to the vagaries of numeric styling, but to calendar variations caused by the observance of various religious eras or regal periods from country to country, or even within a country. Here again with the exception of the sphere from North Africa through the Orient, it will be found that most countries rely on West-
10
ern date numerals and Christian (AD) era reckoning, although in a few instances, coin dating has been tied to the year of a reign or government. The Vatican, for example dates its coinage according to the year of reign of the current pope, in addition to the Christian-era date. Countries in the Arabic sphere generally date their coins to the Muslim era (AH), which commenced on July 16, 622 AD (Julian calendar), when the prophet Mohammed fled from Mecca to Medina. As their calendar is reckoned by the lunar year of 354 days, which is about three percent (precisely 2.98%) shorter than the Christian year, a formula is required to convert AH dating to its Western equivalent. To convert an AH date to the approximate AD date, subtract three percent of the AH date (round to the closest whole number) from the AH date and add 622. A chart converting all AH years from 1010 (July 2, 1601) to 1421 (May 25, 2028) is presented as the Heijra Chart elsewhere in this volume. The Muslim calendar is not always based on the lunar year (AH), however, causing some confusion, particularly in Afghanistan and Iran, where a calendar based on the solar year (SH) was introduced around 1920. These dates can be converted to AD by simply adding 621. In 1976 the government of Iran implemented a new solar calendar based on the foundation of the Iranian monarchy in 559 BC. The first year observed on the new calendar was 2535 (MS), which commenced March 20, 1976. A reversion to the traditional SH dating standard occurred a few years later. Several different eras of reckoning, including Christian and Muslim (AH), have been used to date coins of the Indian subcontinent. The two basic systems are the Vikrama Samvat (VS), which dates from Oct. 18, 58 BC, and the Saka era, the origin of which is reckoned from March 3, 78 AD. Dating according to both eras appears on various coins of the area. Coins of Thailand (Siam) are found dated by three different eras. The most predominant is the Buddhist era (BE), which originated in 543 BC. Next is the Bangkok or Ratanakosindsok (RS) era, dating from 1781 AD; followed by the Chula- Sakarat (CS) era, dating from 638 AD. The latter era originated in Burma and is used on that country's coins. Other calendars include that of the Ethiopian era (EE), which commenced seven years, eight months after AD dating; and that of the Jewish people, which commenced on Oct. 7, 3761 BC. Korea claims a legendary dating from 2333 BC, which is acknowledged in some of its coin dating. Some coin issues of the Indonesian area carry dates determined by the Javanese Aji Saka era (AS), a calendar of 354 days (100 Javanese years equal 97 Christian or Gregorian calendar years), which can be matched to AD dating by comparing it to AH dating. The following table indicates the year dating for the various eras, which correspond to 2003 in Christian calendar reckoning, but it must be remembered that there are overlaps between the eras in some instances.

Korean era4340 Javanese Aji Saka era (AS)AS1940 Fasli era (FE)FE1417 Jewish era (JE)JE5767 Coins of Asian origin - principally Japan, Korea, China, Turkestan and Tibet and some modern gold issues of Turkey - are generally dated to the year of the government, dynasty, reign or cyclic eras, with the dates indicated in Asian characters which usually read from right to left. In recent years, however, some dating has been according to the Christian calendar and in Western numerals. In Japan, Asian character dating was reversed to read from left to right in Showa year 23 (1948 AD). More detailed guides to less prevalent coin dating systems, which are strictly local in nature, are presented with the appropriate listings. Some coins carry dates according to both locally observed and Christian eras. This is particularly true in the Arabic world, where the Hejira date may be indicated in Arabic numerals and the Christian date in Western numerals, or both dates in either form. The date actually carried on a given coin is generally cataloged here in the first column (Date). Dates listed alone in the date column which do not actually appear on a given coin, or dates which are known, but do not appear on the coin, are generally enclosed by parentheses with 'ND' at the left, for example ND(1926). Timing differentials between some era of reckoning, particularly the 354-day Mohammedan and 365-day Christian years, cause situations whereby coins which carry dates for both eras exist bearing two year dates from one calendar combined with a single date from another. Countermarked Coinage is presented with both Countermark Date and Host Coin date for each type. Actual date representation follows the rules outlined above.
NUMBERING SYSTEM
Some catalog numbers assigned in this volume are based on established references. This practice has been observed for two reasons: First, when world coins are listed chronologically they are basically self-cataloging; second, there was no need to confuse collectors with totally new numeric designations where appropriate systems already existed. As time progressed we found many of these established systems incomplete and inadequate and have now replaced many with new KM numbers. When numbers change appropriate cross-referencing has been provided. Some of the coins listed in this catalog are identified or cross-referenced by numbers assigned by R.S. Yeoman (Y#), or slight adaptations thereof, in his Modern World Coins, and Current Coins of the World. For the pre-Yeoman dated issues, the numbers assigned by William D. Craig (C#) in his Coins of the World (1750-1850 period), 3rd edition, have generally been applied. In some countries, listings are cross-referenced to Robert Friedberg's (FR#) Gold Coins of the World or Coins of the British World. Major Fred Pridmore's (P#) studies of British colonial coinage are also referenced, as are W.H. Valentine's (V#) references on the Modern Copper Coins of the Muhammadan States. Coins issued under the Chinese sphere of influence are assigned numbers from E. Kann's (K#) Illustrated Catalog of Chinese Coins and T.K. Hsu's (Su) work of similar title. In most cases, these cross-reference numbers are presented in the descriptive text for each type.

DENOMINATIONS
The second basic consideration to be met in the attribution of a coin is the determination of denomination. Since denominations are usually expressed in numeric, rather than word form on a coin, this is usually quite easily accomplished on coins from nations, which use Western numerals, except in those instances where issues are devoid of any mention of face value, and denomination must be attributed by size, metallic composition or weight. Coins listed in this volume are generally illustrated in actual size. Where size is critical to proper attribution, the coin's millimeter size is indicated. The sphere of countries stretching from North Africa through the Orient, on which numeric symbols generally unfamiliar to Westerners are employed, often provide the collector with a much greater challenge. This is particularly true on nearly all pre-20th Century issues. On some of the more modern issues and increasingly so as the years progress, Western-style numerals usually presented in combination with the local numeric system are becoming more commonplace on these coins. Determination of a coin's currency system can also be valuable in attributing the issue to its country of origin. The included table of Standard International Numeral Systems presents charts of the basic numeric designations found on coins of non-Western origin. Although denomination numerals are generally prominently displayed on coins, it must be remembered that these are general representations of characters, which individual coin engravers may have rendered in widely varying styles. Where numeric or script denominations designation forms peculiar to a given coin or country apply, such as the script used on some Persian (Iranian) issues. They are so indicated or illustrated in conjunction with the appropriate listings.
always presented in capital letters separated from the date by one character space; i.e., 1850 MF. The different mintmark and mintmaster letters found on the coins of any country, state or city of issue are always shown at the beginning of listings.
METALS
Each numbered type listing will contain a description of the coins metallic content. The traditional coinage metals and their symbolic chemical abbreviations sometimes used in this catalog are: Platinum - (PT)Copper - (Cu) Gold - (Au)Brass Silver - (Ag)Copper-nickel- (CN) Billion -Lead - (Pb) Nickel - (Ni)Steel Zinc - (Zn)Tin - (Sn) Bronze - (Ae)Aluminum - (Al) During the 18th and 19th centuries, most of the world's coins were struck of copper or bronze, silver and gold. Commencing in the early years of the 20th century, however, numerous new coinage metals, primarily non-precious metal alloys, were introduced. Gold has not been widely used for circulation coinages since World War I, although silver remained a popular coinage metal in most parts of the world until after World War II. With the disappearance of silver for circulation coinage, numerous additional compositions were introduced to coinage applications.
OFF-METAL STRIKES
Off-metal strikes previously designated by (OMS) which also included the wide range of error coinage struck in other than their officially authorized compositions have been incorporated into Pattern listings along with special issues, which were struck for presentation or other reasons. Collectors of Germanic coinage may be familiar with the term Abschlag which quickly identifies similar types of coinage.
MINTAGES
Quantities minted of each date are indicated where that information is available, generally stated in millions, and usually rounded off to the nearest 10,000 pieces. On quantities of a few thousand or less, actual mintages are generally indicated. For combined mintage figures the abbreviation Inc. Above means Included Above, while Inc. Below means Included Below. Est. beside a mintage figure indicates the number given is an estimate or mintage limit.

PHOTOGRAPHS
To assist the reader in coin identification, every effort has been made to present actual size photographs of every coinage type listed. Obverse and reverse are illustrated, except when a change in design is restricted to one side, and the coin has a diameter of 39mm or larger, in which case only the side required for identification of the type is generally illustrated. All coins up to 60mm are illustrated actual size, to the nearest 1/2mm up to 25mm, and to the nearest 1mm thereafter. Coins larger than 60mm diameter are illustrated in reduced size, with the actual size noted in the descriptive text block. Where slight change in size is important to coin type identification, actual millimeter measurements are stated.

From approximately 1750-1940, a number of nations, particularly European colonial powers and commercial traders, minted trade coins to facilitate commerce with the local populace of Africa, the Arab countries, the Indian subcontinental, Southeast Asia and the Far East. Such coins generally circulated at a value based on the weight and fineness of their silver or gold content, rather than their stated denomination. Examples include the sovereigns of Great Britain and the gold ducat issues of Austria, Hungary and the Netherlands. Trade coinage will sometimes be found listed at the end of the domestic issues.

Homeland types are coins which colonial powers used in a colony, but do not bear that location's name. In some cases they were legal tender in the homeland, in others not. They are listed under the homeland and cross-referenced at the colony listing.
VALUATIONS
Values quoted in this catalog represent the current market and are compiled from recommendations provided and verified through various source documents and specialized consultants. It should be stressed, however, that this book is intended to serve only as an aid for evaluating coins, actual market conditions are constantly changing and additional influences, such as particularly strong local demand for certain coin series, fluctuation of international exchange rates and worldwide collection patterns must also be considered. Publication of this catalog is not intended as a solicitation by the publisher, editors or contributors to buy or sell the coins listed at the prices indicated. All valuations are stated in U.S. dollars, based on careful assessment of the varied international collector market. Valuations for coins priced below $100.00 are generally stated in full amounts - i.e. 37.50 or 95.00 - while valuations at or above that figure are rounded off in even dollars - i.e. $125.00 is expressed 125. A comma is added to indicate thousands of dollars in value. It should be noted that when particularly select uncirculated or proof-like examples of uncirculated coins become available they can be expected to command proportionately high premiums. Such examples in reference to choice Germanic Thalers are referred to as erst schlage or first strikes.
COUNTERMARKS/COUNTERSTAMPS
There is some confusion among collectors over the terms countermark and counterstamp when applied to a coin bearing an additional mark or change of design and/or denomination. To clarify, a countermark might be considered similar to the hall mark applied to a piece of silverware, by which a silversmith assured the quality of the piece. In the same way, a countermark assures the quality of the coin on which it is placed, as, for example, when the royal crown of England was countermarked (punched into) on segmented Spanish reales, allowing them to circulate in commerce in the British West Indies. An additional countermark indicating the new denomination may also be encountered on these coins. Countermarks are generally applied singularly and in most cases indiscriminately on either side of the host coin.
TOKEN COINAGE
At times local economic conditions have forced regular coinage from circulation or found mints unable to cope with the demand for coinage, giving rise to privately issued token coinage substitutes. British tokens of the late 1700s and early 1880s, and the German and French and French Colonial emergency emissions of the World War I era are examples of such tokens being freely accepted in monetary transactions over wide areas. Tokens were likewise introduced to satisfy specific restricted needs, such as the leper
Counterstamped coins are more extensively altered. The counterstamping is done with a set of dies, rather than a hand punch. The coin being counterstamped is placed between the new dies and struck as if it were a blank planchet as found with the Manila 8 reales issue of the Philippines.

colony issues of Brazil, Colombia and the Philippines. This catalog includes introductory or detailed listings with Tn prefixes of many token coinage issues, particularly those which enjoyed wide circulation and where the series was limited in diversity. More complex series, and those more restricted in scope of circulation are generally not listed, although a representative sample may be illustrated and a specialty reference provided.
MEDALLIC ISSUES
All medallic issues can be found in the current edition of Unusual World Coins.
RESTRIKES, COUNTERFEITS
Deceptive restrike and counterfeit (both contemporary and modern) examples exist of some coin issues. Where possible, the existence of restrikes is noted. Warnings are also incorporated in instances where particularly deceptive counterfeits are known to exist. Collectors who are uncertain about the authenticity of a coin held in their collection, or being offered for sale, should take the precaution of having it authenticated by the American Numismatic Association Authentication Bureau, 818 N. Cascade, Colorado Springs, CO 80903. Their reasonably priced certification tests are widely accepted by collectors and dealers alike.
EDGE VARIETIES
P-Plain
4 pence, struck in silver and contained in a little pouch. They have been given away in a special ceremony for the poor for more than two centuries. Specimen Sets: Forerunners of today's proof sets. In most cases the coins were specially struck, perhaps even double struck, to produce a very soft or matte finish on the effigies and fields, along with high, sharp, wire rims. The finish is rather dull to the naked eye. The original purpose of these sets was to provide VIPs, monarchs and mintmasters around the world with samples of the highest quality workmanship of a particular mint. These were usually housed in elaborate velvet-lined leather and metal cases. Proof Sets: This is undoubtedly among the most misused terms in the hobby, not only by collectors and dealers, but also by many of the world mints. A true proof set must be at least double-struck on specially prepared polished planchets and struck using dies (often themselves polished) of the highest quality. Listings for proof sets in this catalog are for officially issued proof sets so designated by the issuing authority, and may or may not possess what are considered modern proof quality standards. It is necessary for collectors to acquire the knowledge to allow them to differentiate true proof sets from would-be proof sets and proof- like sets which may be encountered.
CONDITIONS/GRADING
Wherever possible, coin valuations are given in four or five grades of preservation. For modern commemoratives, which do not circulate, only uncirculated values are usually sufficient. Proof issues are indicated by the word Proof next to the date, with valuation proceeded by the word value following the mintage. For very recent circulating coins and coins of limited value, one, two or three grade values are presented. There are almost no grading guides for world coins. What follows is an attempt to help bridge that gap until a detailed, illustrated guide becomes available. In grading world coins, there are two elements to look for: 1) Overall wear, and 2) loss of design details, such as strands of hair, feathers on eagles, designs on coats of arms, etc. The age, rarity or type of a coin should not be a consideration in grading. Grade each coin by the weaker of the two sides. This method appears to give results most nearly consistent with conservative American Numismatic Association standards for U.S. coins. Split grades, i.e., F/VF for obverse and reverse, respectively, are normally no more than one grade apart. If the two sides are more than one grade apart, the series of coins probably wears differently on each side and should then be graded by the weaker side alone. Grade by the amount of overall wear and loss of design detail evident on each side of the coin. On coins with a moderately small design element, which is prone to early wear, grade by that design alone. For example, the 5-ore (KM#554) of Sweden has a crown above the monogram on which the beads on the arches show wear most clearly. So, grade by the crown alone. For Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) grades there will be no visible signs of wear or handling, even under a 30-power microscope. Full mint luster will be present. Ideally no bags marks will be evident. For Uncirculated (Unc.) grades there will be no visible

SETS
Listings in this catalog for specimen, proof and mint sets are for official, government-produced sets. In many instances privately packaged sets also exist. Mint Sets/Fleur de Coin Sets: Specially prepared by worldwide mints to provide banks, collectors and government dignitaries with examples of current coinage. Usually subjected to rigorous inspection to insure that top quality specimens of selected business strikes are provided. One of the most popular mint set is that given out by the monarch of Great Britain each year on Maunday Thursday. This set contains four special coins in denominations of 1, 2, 3 and

signs of wear or handling, even under a 30-power microscope. Bag marks may be present. For Almost Uncirculated (AU), all detail will be visible. There will be wear only on the highest point of the coin. There will often be half or more of the original mint luster present. On the Extremely Fine (XF or EF) coin, there will be about 95% of the original detail visible. Or, on a coin with a design with no inner detail to wear down, there will be a light wear over nearly all the coin. If a small design is used as the grading area, about 90% of the original detail will be visible. This latter rule stems from the logic that a smaller amount of detail needs to be present because a small area is being used to grade the whole coin. The Very Fine (VF) coin will have about 75% of the original detail visible. Or, on a coin with no inner detail, there will be moderate wear over the entire coin. Corners of letters and numbers may be weak. A small grading area will have about 66% of the original detail. For Fine (F), there will be about 50% of the original detail visible. Or, on a coin with no inner detail, there will be fairly heavy wear over all of the coin. Sides of letters will be weak. A typically uncleaned coin will often appear as dirty or dull. A small grading area will have just under 50% of the original detail.
On the Very Good (VG) coin, there will be about 25% of the original detail visible. There will be heavy wear on all of the coin. The Good (G) coin's design will be clearly outlined but with substantial wear. Some of the larger detail may be visible. The rim may have a few weak spots of wear. On the About Good (AG) coin, there will typically be only a silhouette of a large design. The rim will be worn down into the letters if any. Strong or weak strikes, partially weak strikes, damage, corrosion, attractive or unattractive toning, dipping or cleaning should be described along with the above grades. These factors affect the quality of the coin just as do wear and loss of detail, but are easier to describe. In the case of countermarked/counterstamped coins, the condition of the host coin will have a bearing on the end valuation. The important factor in determining the grade is the condition, clarity and completeness of the countermark itself. This is in reference to countermarks/counterstamps having raised design while being struck in a depression. Incuse countermarks cannot be graded for wear. They are graded by the clarity and completeness including the condition of the host coin which will also have more bearing on the final grade/valuation determined.

HEJIRA (Hijira, Hegira), the name of the Muslim era (A.H. = Anno Hegirae) dates back to the Christian year 622 when Mohammed fled from Mecca, escaping to Medina to avoid persecution from the Koreish tribemen. Based on a lunar year the Muslim year is 11 days shorter. *=Leap Year (Christian Calendar) AH Hejira AD Christian Date 1010 1601, July 2 1011 1602, June 21 1012 1603, June 11 1013 1604, May 30 1014 1605, May 19 1015 1606, May 9 1016 1607, April 28 1017 1608, April 17 1018 1609, April 6 1017 1608, April 28 1018 1609, April 6 1019 1610, March 26 1020 1611, March 16 1021 1612, March 4 1022 1613, February 21 1023 1614, February 11 1024 1615, January 31 1025 1616, January 20 1026 1617, January 9 1027 1617, December 29 1028 1618, December 19 1029 1619, December 8 1030 1620, November 26 1031 1621, November 16 1032 1622, November 5 1033 1623, October 25 1034 1624, October 14 1035 1625, October 3 1036 1626, September 22 1037 1627, September 12 1038 1628, August 31 1039 1629, August 21 1040 1630, August 10 1041 1631, July 30 1042 1632, July 19 1043 1633, July 8 1044 1634, June 27 1045 1635, June 17 1046 1636, June 5 1047 1637, May 26 1048 1638, May 15 1049 1639, May 4 1050 1640, April 23 1051 1641, April 12 1052 1642, April 1 1053 1643, March 22 1054 1644, March 10 1055 1645, February 27 1056 1646, February 17 1057 1647, February 6 1058 1648, January 27 1059 1649, January 15 1060 1650, January 4 1061 1650, December 25 1062 1651, December 14 1063 1652, December 2 1064 1653, November 22 1065 1654, November 11 1066 1655, October 31 1067 1656, October 20 1068 1657, October 9 1069 1658, September 29 1070 1659, September 18 1071 1660, September 6 1072 1661, August 27 1073 1662, August 16 1074 1663, August 5 1075 1664, July 25 1076 1665, July 14 1077 1666, July 4 1078 1667, June 23 1079 1668, June 11 1080 1669, June 1 1081 1670, May 21 1082 1671, May 10 1083 1672, April 29 1084 1673, April 18 1085 1674, April 7

AFGHANISTAN
The Islamic State of Afghanistan, which occupies a mountainous region of Southwest Asia, has an area of 251,825 sq. mi. (652,090 sq. km.) and a population of 25.59 million. Presently, about a fifth of the total population lives in exile as refugees, (mostly in Pakistan). Capital: Kabul. It is bordered by Iran, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and China's Sinkiang Province. Agriculture and herding are the principal industries; textile mills and cement factories add to the industrial sector. Cotton, wool, fruits, nuts, oil, sheepskin coats and hand-woven carpets are normally exported but foreign trade has been interrupted since 1979. Previous to 1747, Afghan Kings ruled not only in Afghanistan, but also in India, of which Sher Shah Suri was one. Ahmad Shah Abdali, founder of the Durrani dynasty, established his rule at Qandahar in 1747. His clan was known as Saddozai. He conquered large territories in India and eastern Iran, which were lost by his grandson Shah Zaman. A new family, the Barakzai, drove the Durrani king out of Kabul, the capital, in 1819, but the Durranis were not eliminated completely until 1858. Further conflicts among the Barakzai prevented full unity until the reign of Abdur Rahman beginning in 1880. Afghanistan's traditional coinage was much like that of its neighbors Iran and India. There were four major mints: Kabul, Qandahar, Balkh and Herat. The early Durranis also controlled mints in Iran and India. On gold and silver coins, the inscriptions in Persian (called Dari in Afghanistan) included the name of the mint city and, normally, of the ruler recognized there, but some issues are anonymous. The arrangement of the inscriptions, and frequently the name of the ruler, was different at each mint. Copper coins were controlled locally and usually did not name any ruler. For these reasons the coinage of each mint is treated separately. The relative values of gold, silver, and copper coins were not fixed but were determined in the marketplace.
RULERS Names of rulers are shown in Perso-Arabic script in the style usually found on their coins; they are not always in a straight line. DURRANI OR SADDOZAI DYNASTY
Ahmadshahi, see Qandahar Until AH 1273, this mint was almost always given on the coins as Ahmadshahi, a name given it by Ahmad Shah in honor of himself in AH1171, often with the honorific Ashraf as-Bilad (meaning Most Noble of Cities). On later issues, after AH1271, the traditional name Qandahar is generally used. Although Qandahar was Ahmad Shahs capital throughout his reign, he did not issue coins from there until AH1171 (1758AD).
Najibabad
Peshawar Peshawar passed to Ahmad Shah after the death of Nadir Shah Afshar, who had seized it from the Mughals in AH1151/1738AD. It was lost to the Sikhs in AH1250/1834AD. Although the winter capital of the Durranis, it was never granted an honorific epithet.

Qandahar, see Ahmadshahi Issues of this mint are listed together with those of Ahmadshahi, which was a name of Qandahar granted in honor of Ahmad Shah, founder of the Durrani Kingdom.
Balkh Located in northern Afghanistan, Balkh bore the honorary epithet of Umm al-Bilad, Mother of Cities, because of its great age. It was taken by Ahmad Shah from the Amir of Bukhara in AH1180 (1765AD) and lost by Taimur Shah to the Uzbeks in AH1206 (1792AD).
Rikab, The Camp mint brought Mubarak with the royal entourage while traveling.
Sahrind, (Sarhind) Bareli Shahjahanabad, see Delhi Shahjahanabad was the Mughal name for Delhi, which was twice seized by Ahmad Shah, once for a couple of months in AH1170/winter 1756-1757AD, a second time in AH11731174/1760-1761AD for thirteen months.
Bhakkar The mint is found variously spelled, as Bhakhar (most common), Bakhar, and Bakkar.

Tatta Dera, The mint of Dera was located at Dera Ghazi Khan, taken by the Sikhs in AH1235 (1819AD), and now within Pakistan. MINT EPITHETS
Derajat, Dera Isma'il Khan The mint of Derajat was located at Dera Ismail Khan, which fell to the Sikhs in AH1236 (1820-21AD. Issues in the name of Mahmud Shah dated AH1236 and later are actually Sikh issues. The Sikhs formally annexed Derajat in AH1281 (1835AD).
Haidarabad Sind Umm al-Bilad, Mother of Cities Herat NAMED HAMMERED COINAGE Unlike the anonymous copper coinage, which was purely local, the silver and gold coins, as well as some of the early copper coins, bear the name or characteristic type of the ruler. Because the sequence of rulers often varied at different mint cities, each ruled by different princes, the coins are best organized according to mint. Each mint employed characteristic types and calligraphy, which continued from one ruler to the next. It is hoped that this system will facilitate identification of these coins. The following listings include not only the mints situated in contiguous territories under Durrani and Barakzai rule for extended periods of time, but also mints in Kashmir or in other parts of India which the Afghans occupied for relatively brief intervals.

From AH1161/1748AD until AH1218/1803AD, it was the capital of the Afsharid principality which remained under nominal Durrani suzerainty from AH1163/1750AD onwards. Coins were struck in the name of Durrani rulers in AH1163, 11681186, 1198-1218.

The Democratic and Popular Republic of Algeria, a North African country fronting on the Mediterranean Sea between Tunisia and Morocco, has an area of 919,595 sq. mi. (2,381,740 sq. km.) and a population of 31.6 million. Capital: Algiers (Alger). Most of the country's working population is engaged in agriculture although a recent industrial diversification, financed by oil revenues, is making steady progress. Wines, fruits, iron and zinc ores, phosphates, tobacco products, liquified natural gas, and petroleum are exported.

In 1492 the Jews and Moors who had been expelled from Spain settled in Algiers and enjoyed an increasing influence until the imposition of Turkish control in 1518. For the following three centuries, Algiers was the headquarters of the notorious Barbary pirates as Turkish control became more and more nominal. The French took Algiers in 1830, and after a long and wearisome war completed the conquest of Algeria and annexed it to France, 1848. Following the armistice signed by France and Nazi Germany on June 22, 1940, Algeria fell under Vichy Government control until liberated by the Allied invasion forces under the command of Gen. D. D. Eisenhower on Nov. 8, 1942. The inability to obtain equal rights with Frenchmen led to an organized revolt which began on Nov. 1, 1954 and lasted until

The Republic of Angola, a country on the west coast of southern Africa bounded by Congo Democratic Republic, Zambia, and Namibia (Southwest Africa), has an area of 481,351 sq. mi. (1,246,700 sq. km.) and a population of 12.78 million, predominantly Bantu in origin. Capital: Luanda. Most of the people are engaged in subsistence agriculture. However, important oil and mineral deposits make Angola potentially one of the richest countries in Africa. Iron and diamonds are exported. The Portuguese navigator, Diogo Cao, discovered Angola in 1482 Angola. Portuguese settlers arrived in 1491, and established Angola as a major slaving center, which sent about 3 million slaves to the New World. A revolt, characterized by guerrilla warfare, against Portuguese rule began in 1961 and continued until 1974, when a new regime in Portugal offered independence. The independence movement was actively supported by three groups; the National Front, based in Zaire, the Soviet-backed Popular Movement, and the moderate National Union. Independence was proclaimed on Nov. 11, 1975, and the Portuguese departed, leaving the Angolan people to work out their own political destiny. Within hours, each of the independence groups proclaimed itself Angola's sole ruler. A bloody intertribal civil war erupted in which the Communist Popular Movement, assisted by Soviet arms and Cuban mercenaries, was the eventual victor.

The Republic of Armenia (formerly Armenian S.S.R.) is bounded in the north by Georgia, to the east by Azerbaijan and to the south and west by Turkey and Iran. It has an area of 11,506 sq. mi. (29,800 sq. km) and an estimated population of 3.66 million. Capital: Yerevan. Agriculture including cotton, vineyards and orchards, hydroelectricity, chemicals - primarily synthetic rubber and fertilizers, vast mineral deposits of copper, zinc and aluminum, and production of steel and paper are major industries. The earliest history of Armenia records continuous struggles with expanding Babylonia and later Assyria. In the sixth century B.C. it was called Armina. Later under the Persian empire it enjoyed the position of a vassal state. Conquered by Macedonia, it later defeated the Seleucids and Greater Armenia was founded under the Artaxis dynasty. Christianity was established in 303 A.D. which led to religious wars with the Persians and Romans who divided it into two zones of influence. The Arabs succeeded the Persian Empire of the Sassanids which later allowed the Armenian princes to conclude a treaty in 653 A.D. In 862 A.D. Ashot V was recognized as the prince of princes and established a throne recognized by Baghdad and Constantinople in 886 A.D. The Seljuks overran the whole country and united with Kurdistan which eventually ran the new government. In 1240 A.D. onward the Mongols occupied almost all of western Asia until their downfall in 1375 A.D. when various Kurdish, Armenian and Turkoman independent principalities arose. After the defeat of the Persians in 1516 A.D. the Ottoman Turks gradually took control over a period of some 40 years, with Kurdish tribes settling within Armenian lands. In 1605 A.D. the Persians moved thousands of Armenians as far as India developing prosperous colonies. Persia and the Ottoman Turks were again at war, with the Ottomans once again prevailing. The Ottomans later gave absolute civil authority to a Christian bishop allowing them free enjoyment of their religion and traditions. Russia occupied Armenia in 1801 until the Russo-Turkish war of 1878. British intervention excluded either side from remaining although the Armenians remained more loyal to the Ottoman Turks, but in 1894 the Ottoman Turks sent in an expeditionary force of Kurds fearing a revolutionary movement. Large massacres were followed by retaliations, then amnesty was proclaimed which led right into WW I and once again occupation by Russian forces in 1916. After the Russian revolution the Georgians, Armenians and Azerbaijanis formed the short lived Transcaucasian Federal Republic on Sept. 20, 1917 which broke up into three independent republics on May 26, 1918. Communism developed and in Sept. 1920 the Turks attacked the Armenian Republic; the Russians soon followed suit from Azerbaijan routing the Turks. On Nov. 29, 1920 Armenia was proclaimed a Soviet Socialist Republic. On March 12, 1922, Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan were combined to form the Transcaucasian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic, which on Dec. 30, 1922, became a part of U.S.S.R. On Dec. 5, 1936, the Transcaucasian federation was dissolved and Armenia became a constituent Republic of the U.S.S.R. A new constitution was adopted in April 1978. Elections took place on May 20, 1990. The Supreme Soviet adopted a declaration of sovereignty in Aug. 1991, voting to unite Armenia with
The Republic of Austria, a parliamentary democracy located in mountainous central Europe, has an area of 32,374 sq. mi. (83,850 sq. km.) and a population of 8.08 million. Capital: Wien (Vienna). Austria is primarily an industrial country. Machinery, iron, steel, textiles, yarns and timber are exported. The territories later to be known as Austria were overrun in pre-Roman times by various tribes, including the Celts. Upon the fall of the Roman Empire, the country became a margravate of Charlemagne's Empire. Premysl II of Otakar, King of Bohemia, gained possession in 1252, only to lose the territory to Rudolf of Habsburg in 1276. Thereafter, until World War I, the story of Austria was conducted by the ruling Habsburgs. During the 17th century, Austrian coinage reflected the geopolitical strife of three wars. From 1618-1648, the Thirty Years' War between northern Protestants and southern Catholics produced low quality, kipperwhipper" strikes of 12, 24, 30, 60, 75 and 150 Kreuzer. Later, during the Austrian-Turkish War, 1660-1664, coinages used to maintain soldier's salaries also reported the steady division of Hungarian territories. Finally, between 1683 and 1699, during the second Austrian-Turkish conflict, new issues of 3, 6 and 15 Kreuzers were struck, being necessary to help defray mounting expenses of the war effort. During World War I, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was one of the Central Powers with Germany, Bulgaria and Turkey. At the end of the war, the Empire was dismembered and Austria established as an independent republic. In March, 1938, Austria was incorporated into Hitler's short-lived Greater German Reich. Allied forces of both East and West occupied Austria in April 1945, and subsequently divided it into 4 zones of military occupation. On May 15, 1955, the 4 powers formally recognized Austria as a sovereign independent democratic state.' Francis I died on August 18, 1765. His wife Maria Theresa, decreed on July 21, 1766 that coins would be issued with the portrait of Francis and bearing the year of his death (1765). Also to be included were letters of the alphabet to indicate the actual year of issue: i.e. A-1766, G-1772, P-1780. The posthumous coins were issued rather erratically as to denominations, years and mints. 5 denominations were made and 7 mints were used. Only the Ducat and 20 Kreuzer were made until 1780, the year in which Maria Theresa died. The other denominations were 3, 10 and 17 Kreuzer.

In some cases the coat of arms will dominate the reverse. The Hungarian Madonna and child is a prime example. On more traditional Austrian design types the provincial coat of arms will be the only one on the imperial eagle's breast. When a more complicated coat of arms is used the provincial arms will usually be found in the center or at the top center usually overlapping neighboring arms. Legend endings frequently reflect the various provincial coats of arms. Sometimes mint marks appear on coins such as

A town on the Austro-Bavarian frontier which grew up around a monastery and bishopric that was founded circa 700. It was raised to the rank of archbishopric in 798. In 1803 Salzburg was secularized and given to Archduke Ferdinand of Austria. In 1805 it was annexed to Austria. Salzburg was part of Bavaria from 1809 to 1813, returning to Austria in the latter year. It became a crownland in 1849, remaining so until becoming part of the Austrian Republic in 1918.

It passed to France in 1795, was part of the Kingdom of Netherlands from 1815 to 1830, and became the present Belgium as the result of the revolution of 1830 against William I, Prince of Orange and King of the Netherlands.

The Republic of Azerbaijan (formerly Azerbaijan S.S.R.) includes the Nakhichevan Autonomous Republic. Situated in the eastern area of Transcaucasia, it is bordered in the west by Armenia, in the north by Georgia and Dagestan, to the east by the Caspian Sea and to the south by Iran. It has an area of 33,430 sq. mi. (86,600 sq. km.) and a population of 7.8 million. Capital: Baku. The area is rich in mineral deposits of aluminum, copper, iron, lead, salt and zinc, with oil as its leading industry. Agriculture and livestock follow in importance. Ancient home of Scythian tribes and known under the Romans as Albania and to the Arabs as Arran, the country of Azerbaijan was formed at the time of its invasion by Seliuk Turks and grew into a prosperous state under Persian suzerainty. From the 16th century the country was a theatre of fighting and political rivalry between Turkey, Persia and later Russia. Baku was first annexed to Russia by Czar Peter I in 1723 and remained under Russian rule for 12 years. After the Russian retreat the whole of Azerbaijan north of the Aras River became a khanate under Persian control. Czar Alexander I, after an eight-year war with Persia, annexed it in 1813 to the Russian empire. Until the Russian Revolution of 1905, there was no political life in Azerbaijan. A Mussavat (Equality) party was formed in 1911 by Mohammed Emin, Rasulzade, a former Social Democrat. After the Russian Revolution of March 1917, the party started a campaign for independence. Baku, however, the capital with its mixed population, constituted an alien enclave in the country While a national Azerbaijani government was established at Gandzha (Elizavetpol), a Communist controlled council assumed power at Baku with Stepan Shaumian, an Armenian, at its head. The Gandzha government joined first, on Sept. 20, 1917, a Transcaucasian federal republic, but on May 28, 1918, proclaimed the independence of Azerbaijan. On June 4, 1918, at Batum, a peace treaty was signed with Turkey. Turko-Azerbaijani forces started an offensive against Baku, occupied since Aug. 17, 1918 by 1,400 British troops coming by sea from Anzali, Persia. On Sept. 14 the British evacuated Baku, returning to Anzali, and three days later the Azerbaijan government, headed by Fath Khoysky, established itself at Baku. After the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the British returned to Baku, at first ignoring the Azerbaijan government. A general election with universal suffrage for the Azerbaijan constituent assembly took place on Dec. 7, 1918 and out of 120 members there were 84 Mussavat supporters. On Jan. 15, 1920, the Allied powers recognized Azerbaijan de facto, but on April 27 of the same year the Red army invaded the country, and a Soviet republic of Azerbaijan was proclaimed the next day. Later it became a member of the Transcaucasian Federation joining the U.S.S.R. on Dec. 30, 1922, it became a self-constituent republic in 1936. The Azerbaijan Communist party held its first congress at Baku in Feb. 1920. From 1921 to 1925 its first secretary was a Russian, S.M. Kirov, who directed a mass deportation to Siberia of about 120,000 Azerbaijani nationalist deviationists, among them the country's first two premiers. In 1990 it adopted a declaration of republican sovereignty and in Aug. 1991 declared itself formally independent. This action was approved by a vote of referendum in Jan. 1992. It announced its intention of joining the CIS in Dec. 1991, but a parliamentary resolution of Oct. 1992 declined to confirm its involvement. On Sept. 20, 1993, Azerbaijan became a member of the CIS. Communist President Mutaibov was relieved of his office in May 1992. On June 7, in the first democratic election in the country's history, a National Council replaced Mutaibov with Abulfez Elchibey. Surat Huseynov led a military coup against Elchibey and seized power on June 30, 1993. Huseynov became prime minister with former communist Geidar Aliyev, president. Fighting commenced between Muslim forces of Azerbaijan and Christian forces of Armenia in 1992 and continued through early 1994. Each faction claimed the Nagorno-Karabakh, an Armenian ethnic enclave, in Azerbaijan. A cease-fire was declared in May 1994.

Darband was briefly seized by the Russians in 1796 and finally conquered on July 3, 1806 (16 Rabi II 1221). The coinage of Darband between 1780 and 1806 never mentions the local ruler, but bears the Arabic phrase, yaal. MINT

GANJA
Ganja has been an important city since pre-Islamic times, and became an Islamic mint about 705 AD. It was part of the Safavid Empire, though occasionally occupied by the Ottomans for short intervals. After the death of Nadir Shah in 1747, it gained independence under Shah Verdi Khan, and local coinage started about 1755. It remained independent until 1805, when acquired by Russia, though it was briefly under Georgian control 17801783 and partially under Iranian control between 1790 and 1802.

QUBBA
Qubba is now the upland city of Kuba in the north of Azerbaijan. It was part of Daghistan and frequently associated with Darband, from time to time partially or fully independent. The local ruler, Fath Ali Khan (1771-1203/1758-1788AD), acquired Darband, probably about 1775, but Darband regained its autonomy after his death. Coinage commenced in the late 1770s. Like Darband, Qubba was briefly seized by the Russians in 1796, and then formally acquired in July 1806. However, unlike Darband it was apparently permitted to continue its local coinage until AH1223/1808AD. Coins of Qubba can readily be distinguished from that of Darband by the name of the mint and phrase a aziz instead of ya al. MINT
NOTE: All coins of Schemakhi lack the rulers name, but are traditionally assigned to ruler by date. Undated examples or examples with date off flan cannot be assigned to a ruler. MINT NAME
KARABAGH
Karabagh, a former Khanate in Azerbaijan was under the control of the Ottomans until 996AD when Persia regained control. The principal mint was located in Panahabad, now the town of Shusha. The hereditary Jewanshir family then broke away from Persia in the second half of the 1700's and abandoned their principality to the Russians in 1822. For the remainder of the Czarist period it formed part of the Muslim governorship of Baker until 1868, when it was transfered to Elizabetpol. It now forms part of The Nagorno-Karabakh-Oblast which was established as an autonomous region with Azerbaijan in 1923. They elected for independence in the C.I.S. in 1991.

The Azores, an archipelago of nine islands of volcanic origin, are located in the Atlantic Ocean 740 miles (1,190 km.) west of Cape de Roca, Portugal. They are the westernmost region of Europe under the administration of Portugal and have an area of 902 sq. mi. (2,305 sq. km.) and a population of 236,000. Principal city: Ponta Delgada. The natives are mainly of Portuguese descent and earn their livelihood by fishing, wine making, basket weaving and the growing of fruit, grains and sugar cane. Pineapples are the chief item of export. The climate is particularly temperate, making the islands a favorite winter resort. The Azores were discovered about 1427 by the Portuguese navigator Diogo de Sevill. Portugal secured the islands in the 15th century and established the first settlement on Santa Maria about 1439. From 1580 to 1640 the Azores were subject to Spain. The Azores' first provincial coinage was ordered by law of August 19, 1750. Copper coins were struck for circulation in both the Azores and Madeira Islands, keeping the same technical specifications but with different designs. In 1795 a second provincial coinage was introduced but the weight was reduced by 50 percent. Angra on Terceira Island became the capital of the captaincygeneral of the Azores in 1766 and it was here in 1826 that the constitutionalists set up a pro-Pedro government in opposition to King Miguel in Lisbon. The whole Portuguese fleet attacked Terceira and was repelled at Praia, after which Azoreans, Brazilians and British mercenaries defeated Miguel in Portugal. Maria de Gloria, Pedro's daughter, was proclaimed queen of Portugal on Terceira in 1828. A U.S. naval base was established at Ponta Delgada in 1917. After World War II, the islands acquired a renewed importance as a refueling stop for transatlantic air transport. The United States maintains defense bases in the Azores as part of the collective security program of NATO. In 1976 the archipelago became the Autonomous Region of Azores. Note: Portuguese 50 Centavos and 1 Escudo pieces dated 1935 were issued for circulation in Azores. These are found under the appropriate listing in Portugal.

Barbados, a Constitutional Monarchy within the British Commonwealth, is located in the Windward Islands of the West Indies east of St. Vincent. The coral island has an area of 166 sq. mi. (430 sq. km.) and a population of 269,000. Capital: Bridgetown. The economy is based on sugar and tourism. Sugar, petroleum products, molasses, and rum are exported. Barbados was named by the Portuguese who achieved the first landing on the island in 1563. British sailors landed at the site of present-day Holetown in 1624. Barbados was under uninterrupted British control from the time of the first British settlement in 1627 until it obtained independence on Nov. 30, 1966. It is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. Elizabeth II is Head of State as Queen of Barbados. Unmarked side cut pieces of Spanish and Spanish Colonial 1, 2 and 8 reales were the principal coinage medium of 18th-century Barbados. The Neptune" tokens issued by Sir Phillip Gibbs, a local plantation owner, circulated freely but were never established as legal coinage. The coinage and banknotes of the British Caribbean Territories (Eastern Group) were employed prior to 1973 when Barbados issued a decimal coinage. RULER British

The Parliamentary British Colony of Bermuda, situated in the western Atlantic Ocean 660 miles (1,062 km.) east of North Carolina, has an area of 20.6 sq. mi. (53 sq. km.) and a population of 61,600. Capital: Hamilton. Concentrated essences, beauty preparations, and cut flowers are exported. Most Bermudians derive their livelihood from tourism. Bermuda was discovered by Juan de Bermudez, a Spanish navigator, in about 1503. British influence dates from 1609 when a group of Virginia-bound British colonists under the command of Sir George Somers was shipwrecked on the islands for 10 months. The islands were settled in 1612 by 60 British colonists from the Virginia Colony and became a crown colony in 1684. The earliest coins issued for the island were the Hogge Money series of 2, 3, 6 and 12 pence, the name derived from the pig in the obverse design, a recognition of the quantity of such animals then found there. The next issue for Bermuda was the Birmingham coppers of 1793; all locally circulating coinage was demonetized in 1842, when the currency of the United Kingdom became standard. Internal autonomy was obtained by the constitution of June 8, 1968.

The Kingdom of Bhutan, a landlocked Himalayan country bordered by Tibet and India, has an area of 18,150 sq. mi. (47,000 sq. km.) and a population of *2.03 million. Capital: Thimphu. Virtually the entire population is engaged in agricultural and pastoral activities. Rice, wheat, barley, and yak butter are produced in sufficient quantity to make the country self-sufficient in food. The economy of Bhutan is primitive and many transactions are conducted on a barter basis. Bhutan's early history is obscure, but is thought to have resembled that of rural medieval Europe. The country was conquered by Tibet in the 9th century, and a dual temporal and spiritual rule developed which operated until the mid-19th century, when the southern part of the country was occupied by the British and annexed to British India. Bhutan was established as a hereditary monarchy in 1907, and in 1910 agreed to British control of its external affairs. In 1949, India and Bhutan concluded a treaty whereby India assumed Britain's role in subsidizing Bhutan and guiding its foreign affairs. In 1971 Bhutan became a full member of the United Nations.

BOHEMIA
fighting against the Turks. His sister was the wife of Emperor Ferdinand I and thus, Bohemia passed to the Hapsburgs. Bohemia, however, was an electoral monarchy and the king was chosen by the leading nobles at the capital, Prague. In most instances, the succession of one emperor to the next made electing the new emperor as king of Bohemia a mere formality. Very often, the heir apparent to the emperor was elected King of Bohemia prior to his fathers passing. By the early 17th century, Protestantism had made great inroads among the Czech nobility and anti-Catholic/anti-Hapsburg sentiments were at a peak. Before Emperor Matthias died in 1619, the nobles had been forced to elect Archduke Ferdinand (II) in 1617. When two governors, appointed by Matthias, were thrown from a window of the palace in Prague in May 1618, in what became known as the Defenestration of Prague, the event precipitated a revolt by the Bohemian Estates (Die bhmischen Stnde). The Estates were constituted of the noble lords, the knights and the cities, who deposed Emperor Ferdinand II as king and elected the Protestant Friedrich V, Count Palatine and Elector of the Rhine, in his place. Hostilities had already begun between some of the Protestant German princes and the Emperor, but the elevation of Friedrich to the Bohemian throne galvanized imperial resolve and made the new kings reign very short. Coinage was struck under the authority of firstly, the Estates, and then King Friedrich. The Hapsburgs regained Bohemia in 1620 and except for the later short reign of Karl Albrecht of Bavaria in 1741-42, continued until 1918, although it ceased to be viewed as a separate entity after the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire by Napoleon in 1806.

Bhmen The large and important Kingdom of Bohemia is located in Central Europe between Bavaria and Austria on the south, Saxony and Silesia on the north, Franconia and the Upper Palatinate to the west, and the Margraviate of Moravia to the east. The region was early settled by the Celtic Boii and controlled by the Czechs, a Slavic people, from the fifth century. Bohemia was at first a duchy and produced a series of rulers dating from the late 9th century. The first hereditary king was Wladislaw II, who ruled 11401173. During the later Middle Ages, the kingdom was acquired through marriage to various dynasties of the region, notably the Margraves of Moravia, the Electors of Brandenburg and emperors as well. By the late 15th century, the ruler was another Wladislaw II, a son of the King of Poland, and he was also the King of Hungary. His son, Ludwig, was killed in 1526 at the Battle of Mohacz,

EGER
The town of Eger (Czech Cheb) is located on the Ohre River, 86 miles (144 kilometers) west of Prague, and gave its name to the region surrounding it. The district was first mentioned in 870 as part of the margraviate of East Franconia. Ludwig the Bavarian, in order to procure the imperial throne, pledged Eger to the Bohemian crown for 20,000 silver marks in 1314 (reigned as Ludwig III, 1314-47). Emperor Karl IV of Bohemia (1347-78) allowed the town to begin issuing coins in 1349. Eger also struck a number of coins in the early 16th century and again just before and during the Thirty Years War. The town was the site of the murder of the imperial general Wallenstein on 25 February 1634 (see Friedland). A few siege coins were struck in Eger in 1743 during the War of the Austrian Succession. ARMS 2-fold divided horizontally, upper field has upper half of an eagle with spread wings, the lower field is filled with a cross-hatch pattern. REFERENCES S = Hugo Frhr.

The present-day Litomerice in the Czech Republic, the town of Leitmeritz, about halfway between Dresden and Prague, became the seat of a bishopric after the end of the Thirty Years War.

SCHLICK
Heinrich Schlick was the Brgermeister (mayor) of Lazan in western Bohemia, but owned land in Passaun (Bassano in Italy, north of Vicenza and Padua) and Weisskirchen (at that time, Ujvr in Hungary, now in Romania) 45 miles (75 kilometers) east of Belgrade. Heinrich was given a patent for bearing a coat of arms by Emperor Sigismund (1410-37) in 1416. His son, Caspar (1436-49), was given the title of Count of Bassano in 1437. Therefore, Schlick was always included as the family name, but the title was Count of Passaun and Weisskirchen. The count obtained the mint right in 1489 and began coining silver from the mines of Joachimsthal and Michaelsburg about 1517. The large Guldengroschen struck from the mined silver came to be called a Joachimsthaler, later shorted to Thaler, the origin of the dollar in English. The mint right was confiscated by the Bohemian crown in 1528 and Joachimsthal was also made a royal mint in 1545. The mint right was restored to the family in 1626. The last coins of Schlick were struck in the 1760s and by the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire by Napoleon in 1806 the mint right was forfeited. The line of counts continued well into the 19th century, however.

faces it) is a p and, under it, the assayer's initial, although in some early examples the P and assayer can appear to the right of the shield. While production at the Casa de Moneda was enormous, the quality of the coinage was at times so poor that some 50 were condemned to death by their superiors. Therefore, by royal decree of February 17, 1651, the design was changed to the quartered castles and lions for the obverse and two crowned pillars of Hercules floating above the waves of the sea for the reverse. A new transitional series was introduced in 1651-1652 followed by a new standard design in 1652 and as the last cob type continued on for several years along with the milled pillars and bust pieces from 1767 through 1773. In the final years under Charles III the planchet is compact and dumpy, very irregular and of poor style, contrasting sharply with their counterpart denominations of the pillar and bust types. Rarely, and at very high prices, we may be offered almost perfectly round cobs, with the dies well-centered, showing the legend and date completely. These have gained importance in the last decades and are known as royal or presentation pieces. Every year a few of these specimens were coined, using dies in excellent condition and a specially prepared round planchet, to prove the quality of the minting to the Viceroy or even to the King. Another very unusual and rare variety is specially struck specimens on heart-shaped flans. While many heart-shaped examples are encountered in todays market, a careful examination will reveal that most are underweight and were created after striking for jewelry and souvenir purposes. Most surviving specimens are holed, plugged or countermarked as found in Guatemala listings. The rest of the production was of primitive quality due to the shortage of equipment, skilled laborers and the volume to be struck. Most pre-decimal coinage of independent Bolivia carries the assayers' initials on the reverse near the rim to the left of the date, in 4 to 5 o'clock position. The mint mark or name appears in the 7 to 8 o'clock area.

The Republic of Bolivia, a landlocked country in west central South America, has an area of 424,165 sq. mi. (1,098,580 sq. km.) and a population of *8.33 million. Its capitals are: La Paz (administrative) and Sucre (constitutional). Principal exports are tin, zinc, antimony, tungsten, petroleum, natural gas, cotton and coffee. Much of present day Bolivia was first dominated by the Tiahuanaco Culture ca.400 BC. It had in turn been incorporated into the Inca Empire by 1440AD prior to the arrival of the Spanish, in 1535, who reduced the Indian population to virtual slavery. When Joseph Napoleon was placed upon the throne of occupied Spain in 1809, a fervor of revolutionary activity quickened throughout Alto Peru - culminating in the 1809 Proclamation of Liberty. Sixteen bloody years of struggle ensued before the republic, named for the famed liberator Simon Bolivar, was established on August 6, 1825. Since then Bolivia has survived more than 16 constitutions, 78 Presidents, 3 military juntas and over 160 revolutions. The Imperial City of Potosi, founded by Villarroel in 1546, was established in the midst of what is estimated to have been the world's richest silver mines (having produced in excess of 2 billion dollars worth of silver). The first mint, early in 1574, used equipment brought over from Lima. Before that it had been used at La Plata where the operation failed. The oldest type was a cob with the Hapsburg arms on the obverse and cross with quartered castles and lions on the reverse. To the heraldic right of the shield (at the left as one

BRAZIL
The Federative Republic of Brazil, which comprises half the continent of South America and is the only Latin American country deriving its culture and language from Portugal, has an area of 3,286,488 sq. mi. (8,511,965 sq. km.) and a population of *169.2 million. Capital: Brasilia. The economy of Brazil is as varied and complex as any in the developing world. Agriculture is a mainstay of the economy, while only 4 percent of the area is under cultivation. Known mineral resources are almost unlimited in variety and size of reserves. A large, relatively sophisticated industry ranges from basic steel and chemical production to finished consumer goods. Coffee, cotton, iron ore and cocoa are the chief exports. Brazil was discovered and claimed for Portugal by Admiral Pedro Alvares Cabral in 1500. Portugal established a settlement in 1532 and proclaimed the area a royal colony in 1549. During the Napoleonic Wars, Dom Joao VI established the seat of Portuguese government in Rio de Janeiro. When he returned to Portugal, his son Dom Pedro I declared Brazil's independence on Sept. 7, 1822, and became emperor of Brazil. The Empire of Brazil was maintained until 1889 when the federal republic was established. The Federative Republic was established in 1946 by terms of a constitution drawn up by a constituent assembly. Following a coup in 1964 the armed forces retained overall control under a dictatorship until civilian government was restored on March 15, 1985. The current constitution was adopted in 1988.

Nasaf In the several centuries prior to 1500 which witnessed the breakup of the Mongol Empire and the subsequent rise of smaller successor states, no single power or dynasty was able to control the vast expanses of Western and Central Asia. The region known previously as Transoxiana, the land beyond the Oxus River (modern Amu Darya), became the domain of the Shaybanids, then the Janids. The territory ruled by these dynasties had no set borders, which rather expanded and contracted as the fortunes of the rulers ebbed and flowed. At their greatest extent, the khanate took in parts of what are now northern Iran and Afghanistan, as well as part or all of modern Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Tadzhikistan and Kyrgyzstan. Coins are known to have been struck by virtually every ruler, but some are quite scarce owing to short reigns or the ever-changing political and economic situation. MINTS Qayin Abivard Qunduz

BUKHARA
Bukhara, a city and former emirate in southern Russian Turkestan, formed part (Sogdiana) of the Seleucid empire after the conquest of Alexander the Great and remained an important regional center, sometimes city state, until the 19th century. The Manghits of Bukhara were successors to the Janids in Bukhara and Samarqand, with a sole mint at Bukhara. Except for some of the issues of Haidar Tora, Manghit coins lack the name of the current ruler, but cite a deceased hero of earlier times. Most issues can by assigned to a ruler only by date. Coins were usually dated on both obverse and reverse, so mismatched dates are very plentiful and common. All coins bear the mint name Bukhara. The gold and silver were generally well-struck until the AH1260s/1840s AD, but were gradually less carefully made, especially the silver coins after the AH1290s/1870s AD. Most copper coins were poorly made and rarely well-preserved. The gold tilla weighed 4.6 grams and the silver tenga 3.2 grams throughout this coinage. The copper pul used a standard of 4.6 grams un AH1286/1869AD, but individual examples often weigh much less. After copper minting resumed in AH1319/1901AD, the pul weighed 2.6 grams. All the silver and gold coins from the reign of Nasrullah onwards were issued in the name of Amir Masum and are only distinguished from issues prior to AH1242/1826AD by date and style. The later copper coins are always anonymous. Bukhara, became a part of Russian Turkestan in AH1284/1867AD as a consequence of the Czarist invasion of 1866. Gradually it became a part of Uzbekistan S.S.R., now Uzbekistan, which see.

The Janids were the successors to the Shaybanid dynasty and they maintained coinage traditions similar to those of their predecessors. Janid silver coins are almost invariably poorly struck, rarely showing either mint or date. After about AH1090/1679AD, the alloy became increasingly debased and was mostly copper after the early AH1100s/1670s AD. By contrast, the gold coins of the Janids are found to be of high quality and alloy. The original silver tanka conformed to the 4.7 gram weight inherited from the Shaybanids, but sank to below 4 grams by the end of the dynasty. Mint names, when they are visible on the silver coins, have only been recorded for Balkh, Bukhara and Samarqand. The dates of rule given for the Janid khans are rather tentative. The standard lists in the genealogical references to not agree with the dates found on the coins in all cases. During the rule of the last Janid, Abul-Ghazi Khan in the late 13th/18th century, the territory was split into three smaller principalities: Bukhara, Khiva and Khoqand, which see.

TASHKAND
Tashkent Hakimate The city of Tashkand (modern Tashkent), north of Samarqand and Bukhara, became the capital of a short-lived principality ruled by hakims. Coins were minted at Tashkand during a short republican period of its independence in AH1199-1223 / 17841808AD. Primarily, the government came under the joint rule of four municipal hakims (no coins known), until one of them, Muhammad Yunus Khwaja Umari, eliminated his partners by about AH1204/1789AD and replaced the tetrumvirate by his sole rule. At first, he was a vassal of Bukhara, but independent from AH1209/1794AD. Very rare copper puls (fulus) and extremely rare billon tengas are known struck with his name. In AH1215/1801AD, Yunus Khwaja was dismissed from power by his own son. During the latters rule, anonymous copper coins were issued. Several type of Tashkand copper coins with pictorial images (fancy beast, double fish, bird and others, some without inscriptions) are believed arbitrarily to date from the late Hakimate period. However, being undated and as such, anonymous, they may also belong to the earlier Janid period, so are not listed here. In AH1223/1808AD, the city was seized by troops from Khoqand. From then until the Russian annexation in 1864, coins of Khoqand, Bukhara, as well as Russian currency, were in circulation in Tashkent.

DUTCH COLONY
The Dutch first sighted Ceylon in 1602. They made a treaty with the king of Kandy for trading rights and the Dutch would have to expel the Portuguese. Between 1638 and 1658 the Dutch had accomplished their purpose. The Portuguese were gone from Ceylon. As the Dutch trade with Ceylon prospered the coins in use were local coins and countermarked coins of the Portuguese colonies. It was not until sometime after 1660 that the Dutch began striking anonymous copper coins. In the second third of the 1700s, copper duits of the Netherlands provinces were sent to the East and used widely there. The VOC monogram on these coins became a familiar sight to the merchants of the sub-continent and the East Indies. Local coinage started again in 1783.

The Republic of Chile, a ribbon-like country on the Pacific coast of southern South America, has an area of 292,135 sq. mi. (756,950 sq. km.) and a population of *15.21 million. Capital: Santiago. Historically, the economic base of Chile has been the rich mineral deposits of its northern provinces. Copper has accounted for more than 75 percent of Chile's export earnings in recent years. Other important mineral exports are iron ore, iodine and nitrate of soda. Fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as wine are increasingly significant in inter-hemispheric trade. Diego de Almargo was the first Spaniard to attempt to wrest Chile from the Incas and Araucanian tribes in 1536. He failed, and was followed by Pedro de Valdivia, a favorite of Pizarro, who founded Santiago in 1541. When the Napoleonic Wars involved Spain, leaving the constituent parts of the Spanish Empire to their own devices, Chilean patriots formed a national government and proclaimed the country's independence, Sept. 18, 1810. Independence however, was not secured until Feb. 12, 1818, after a bitter struggle led by Bernardo O'Higgins and San Martin. Despite a long steady history of monetary devaluation, reflected in declining weight and fineness in its currency, Chile developed a strong democracy. This was displaced when rampant inflation characterized chaotic and subsequently repressive governments in the mid to late 20th century.

Before 1912, China was ruled by an imperial government. The republican administration which replaced it was itself supplanted on the Chinese mainland by a communist government in 1949, but it has remained in control of Taiwan and other offshore islands in the China Sea with a land area of approximately 14,000 square miles and a population of more than 14 million. The People's Republic of China administers some 3.7 million square miles and an estimated 1.19 billion people. This communist government, officially established on October 1, 1949, was admitted to the United Nations, replacing its nationalist predecessor, the Republic of China, in 1971. Cast coins in base metals were used in China many centuries before the Christian era, but locally struck coinages of the western type in gold, silver, copper and other metals did not appear until 1888.In spite of the relatively short time that modern coins have been in use, the number of varieties is exceptionally large. Both Nationalist and Communist China, as well as the prerevolutionary Imperial government and numerous provincial or other agencies, including some foreign-administered agencies and governments, have issued coins in China. Most of these have been in dollar (yuan) or dollar-fraction denominations, based on the internationally used dollar system, but coins in tael denominations were issued in the 1920's and earlier. The striking of coins nearly ceased in the late 1930's through the 1940's due to the war effort and a period of uncontrollable inflation while vast amounts of paper currency were issued by the Nationalist, Communist and Japanese occupation institutions. Reign title: Chia-ch'ing (Jiaqing)
Chia-ch'ing T'ung-pao Chia-ch'ing - Born November 13, 1760 in Peking. He was proclaimed emperor and assumed the reign title in 1796. The White Lotus Rebellion, 1796-1804, broke out in central and western China. Capable generals were appointed to quell the rebellion, but it took the depleted Ch'ing armies five years to put it down. Chia-ch'ing made efforts to restore the finances of the imperial treasury but corruption may have increased as a result of the practice of selling high office as a means of collecting more revenue. Chia-ch'ing died on September 2, 1820, as one of the most unpopular emperors of the Ch'ing dynasty. ADDITIONAL CHARACTERS The additional characters illustrated and defined below are found on the reverse of cast bronze cash coins, usually above the square center hole. In the period covered by this catalog the following mints produced cash coins with these additional marks: Board of Revenue and Board of Works in Peking, Kweichow, Aksu and Ili in Sinkiang, Shantung, Szechuan, and all three mints listed in Yunnan. CHARACTERS I, YI Shih I Hsin

Ch'ien-lung T'ung-pao Ch'ien-lung - One of the longest ruling and most brilliant emperors in China's entire history. Born on September15, 1711, he ascended the throne on October 18, 1735, at age 24. He fathered 17 sons and 10 daughters by his concubines. Under Ch'ien-lung, China reached its widest limits, but bad management, extravagance and corruption marked the last two decades of Ch'ien-lung's reign and weakened the empire for some time to come. The role of Ch'ien-lung in the arts and letters of his time was a considerable one. He himself wrote prose as well as verse. In 1772 he ordered the making of the Complete Library in the Four Branches of Literature. Seven handwritten series of the 36,275 volumes were distributed among palaces and libraries between 1782 and 1787. Architecture. painting, porcelain, and particularly jade and ivory-work flourished. After having reigned for 60 years, Ch'ien-lung, out of respect for K'ang-hsi, his near predecessor whose reign had lasted 61 years, announced on October 15, 1795, that he was designating his fifth son, Yungyen, to succeed him. The aged emperor died February 7, 1799.

The ingots were cast in molds (giving them their characteristic shapes) and while the metal was still semi-liquid, the inscription was impressed. It was due to this procedure that the sides of some sycee are higher than the center. The manufacturers were usually silver firms, often referred to as lu fang's, and after the sycee was finished it was occasionally tested and marked by the kung ku (public assayer). Sycee were not circulated as we understand it. One didn't usually carry a sycee to market and spend it. Usually the ingots were used as a means of carrying a large amount of money on trips (as we would carry $100 bills instead of $5 bills) or for storing wealth. Large transactions between merchants or banks were paid by means of crates of sycee - each containing 60 fifty tael ingots. Sycee are known in a variety of shapes the most common of which are the shoe or boat shaped, drum shaped, and loaf shaped (rectangular or hourglass-shaped, with a generally flat surface). Other shapes include one that resembles a double headed axe (this is the oldest type known), one that is square and flat, and others that are fancy (in the form of fish, butterflies, leaves, etc.). Sycee have no denominations as they were simply ingots that passed by weight. Most are in more or less standard weights, however, the most common being 1, 5, 10 and 50 taels. Other weights known include 1/10, 1/5, 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, 72/100 (this is the weight of a dollar), 3/4, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8 and 25 taels. Most of the pieces weighing less than 5 taels were used as gifts or souvenirs. The actual weight of any given value of sycee varied considerably due to the fact that the tael was not a single weight but a general term for a wide range of local weight standards. The weight of the tael varied depending upon location and type of tael in question. For example in one town, the weight of a tael of rice, of silver and of stones may each be different. In addition, the fineness of silver also varied depending upon location and type of tael in question. It was not true, as westerners often wrote, that sycee were made of pure silver. For most purposes, a weight of 37 grams may be used for the tael.

CH'ING DYNASTY
Prior to 1889 the general coinage issued by the Chinese government was the copper-alloy cash coin. Despite occasional shortlived experiments with silver and gold coinage, and disregarding paper money which tended to be unreliable, the government expected the people to get by solely with cash coins. This system worked well for individuals making purchases for themselves, but was unsatisfactory for trade and large business transactions, since a dollar's worth of cash coins weighed about four pounds. As a result, a private currency consisting of silver ingots, usually stamped by the firm which made them, came into use. These were the sycee ingots. It is not known when these ingots first came into use. Some sources date them to the Yuan (Mongol) dynasty but they are certainly much older. Examples are known from as far back as the Han dynasty (206 BC - 220 AD) but prior to the Sung era (960 1280AD) they were used mainly for hoarding wealth. The development of commerce by the Sung dynasty, however, required the use of silver or gold to pay for large purchases. By the Mongol period (1280-1368) silver ingots and paper money had become the dominant currencies, especially for trade. The western explorers who traveled to China during this period (such as Marco Polo) mention both paper money and sycee but not a single one refers to cash coins. During the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) trade fell off and the use of silver decreased. But toward the end of that dynasty, Dutch and British ships began a new China trade and sycee once again became common. During the 19 th and early 20th centuries, the trade in sycee became enormous. Most of the sycee around today are from this period. In 1935 the Chinese government and in 1939 Sinkiang banned the use of sycee and it soon disappeared. The word sycee (pronounced sigh - see) is a western corruption of the Chinese word hsi-szu (fine silk) or hsi yin (fine silver) and is first known to have appeared in the English language in the late 1600's. By the early 1700's the word appeared regularly in the records of the British East India Company. Westerners also called these ingots boat money or shoe money owing to the fact that the most common type of ingot resembles a Chinese shoe. The Chinese, however, called the ingots by a variety of names, the most common of which were yuan pao, wen -yin (fine silver) and yin-ting (silver ingot).

tions, including Genghis Khan. It became a province in 1884. China has made claim to Sinkiang (Xinjiang) for many, many years. This rule has been more nominal than actual. Sinkiang (Xinjiang) had eight imperial mints, only three of which were in operation toward the end of the reign of Kuang Hs. Only two mints operated during the early years of the republic. In 1949, due to a drastic coin shortage and lack of confidence in the inflated paper money, it was planned to mint some dollars in Sinkiang (Xinjiang). These did not see much circulation, however, due to the defeat of the nationalists, though they have recently appeared in considerable numbers in today's market. PATTERNS NOTE: A number of previously listed cast coins of Sinkiang Province are now known to be patterns - mother cash or seed cash for which no circulating issues are known. The following coins are, therefore, no longer listed. Most were probably manufactured in Beijing. They are generally made of brass rather than the purer copper usual to Sinkiang. The following coins are, therefore, no longer listed here: Craig #30-9, 30-11a, 30-12a, 3014, 30-15a, 30-16, 30-17, 28-4.1, 28-8a, 28-9a,28-9c, 28-10, 311a, 31-1v, 31-2, 32-4, 32-5, 33-12, 33-21, 34-2, 34-3, 35-5a and 35-6.

The Republic of Colombia, in the northwestern corner of South America, has an area of 440,831 sq. mi. (1,138,910 sq. km.) and a population of*42.3 million. Capital: Bogota. The economy is primarily agricultural with a mild, rich coffee being the chief crop. Colombia has the world's largest platinum deposits and important reserves of coal, iron ore, petroleum and limestone; other precious metals and emeralds are also mined. Coffee, crude oil, bananas, sugar and emeralds are exported. The northern coast of present Colombia was one of the first parts of the American continent to be visited by Spanish navigators. At Darien in Panama is the site of the first permanent European settlement on the American mainland in 1510. New Granada, as Colombia was known until 1861, stemmed from the settlement of Santa Marta in 1525. New Granada was established as a Spanish colony in 1549. Independence was declared in 1810, and secured in 1819 when Simon Bolivar united Colombia, Venezuela, Panama and Ecuador as the Republic of Gran Colombia. Venezuela withdrew from the Republic in 1829; Ecuador in 1830; and Panama in 1903.

Note: Values given for dated cobs are representative of average strikes with the last two digits of the date discernible. The esthetic appearance, quality of strike, and presence of date, mint mark and assayer initials all have an effect on the value of cobs. Note: Colombian cob 1/4 Reales, which are all very rare, did not bear dates in their design, but can be dated at least approximately by virtue of the fact that the castle on the obverse and the lion on the reverse match exactly with the castles and lions in the shield of the 8 Reales struck in the same year or period.

The people of Courland are of Aryan descent primarily from the German Order of Livonian Knights. They were nomadic tribesmen who settled along the Baltic prior to the 13th century. Ideally situated as a trade route and lacking a central government, they were conquered in 1561 by Poland and Sweden. When the Livonian Order was dissolved in 1561 the then Master of the Order, Gotthard Kettler was made Duke of Courland. During the 17th century, Courland remained part of Poland, but went under Russia after Poland's division. When the Kettler line became extinct in 1737 Courland was awarded to Ernst Johann Biron, chief advisor and lover of Empress Anna of Russia. After her death he was exiled but returned in 1763. He abdicated in favor of his son Peter in 1769.

CRIMEA (KRIM)
The Crimea (ancient Tauris or Tauric Chersonese, Turkish Kirim or Krim, Russian Krym) is a peninsula of southern Russia extending into the Black Sea southwest of the Sea of Azov. In ancient times, the Crimea was inhabited by the Gothsand Scythians, was colonized by the Greeks, and ranked, in part, as a tributary state of Rome. During the succeeding centuries, the Goths, Huns, Khazars, Byzantine Greeks, Kipchak Turks, and the Tatars of Batu Khan who founded the Tatar Khanate in Russia known as the Empire of the Golden Horde overran the Crimea. After the destruction of the Golden Horde by Tamerlane (Timur) in 1395, the Crimean Taters founded an independent khanate under Haji Ghirai which reigned first at Solkhat (Eski Kirim or Stary Krym). The Crimean khans ruled as tributary princes of the Ottoman empire from 1478 to 1777, when they became dependent upon Russia. Catherine II annexed the Crimea to Russia on April 26,1783, and after a period as the Tavrida province, it was made an autonomous republic of the Russian federation in1921. The Tatars, however, remained fiercely nationalistic and during World War II collaborated with the German-Rumanian occupation force. Upon Russian re-conquest of the Crimea in May, 1944, the entire Tatar population was deported to Russia and Siberia. The autonomous Crimean republic was dissolved and reconstituted as a region of the Russian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic. On Feb. 14, 1954, this region was transferred to the Ukranian Soviet Socialist Republic, becoming its southernmost province.

The Republic of Cuba, situated at the northern edge of the Caribbean Sea about 90 miles (145 km.) south of Florida, has an area of 42,804 sq. mi. (110,860 sq. km.) and a population of *11.2 million. Capital: Havana. The Cuban economy is based on the cultivation and refining of sugar, which provides 80 percent of export earnings. Discovered by Columbus in 1492 and settled by Diego Velasquez in the early 1500s, Cuba remained a Spanish possession until 1898, except for a brief British occupancy of Havana in 1762-63. Cuban attempts to gain freedom were crushed, even while Spain was granting independence to its other American possessions. Ten years of warfare, 1868-78, between Spanish troops and Cuban rebels exacted guarantees of rights which were never implemented. The final revolt, begun in 1895, evoked American sympathy, and with the aid of U.S. troops independence was proclaimed on May 20, 1902. Fulgencio Batista seized the government in 1952 and established a dictatorship. Opposition to Batista, led by Fidel Castro, drove him into exile on Jan. 1, 1959.

The Dutch West India Company took the island from Spain in 1634 and administered it until 1787, when it was surrendered to the United Netherlands. The Dutch held it thereafter except for two periods during the Napoleonic Wars, 1800-1803 and 1807-16, when it was occupied by the British. During World War II, Curacao refined 60 percent of the oil used by the Allies; the refineries were protected by U.S. troops after Germany invaded the Netherlands in 1940. During the second occupation of the Napoleonic period, the British created an emergency coinage for Curacao by cutting the Spanish dollar into 5 equal segments and countermarking each piece with a rosette indent.

The Danish West Indies (now the U.S. organized unincorporated territory of the Virgin Islands of the United States) consisted of the islands of St. Thomas, St. John, St. Croix, and 62 islets in the Caribbean Sea roughly 40 miles (64 km.) east of Puerto Rico. The islands have a combined area of 133 sq. mi. (352 sq. km.) and a population of *106,000. Capital: Charlotte Amalie. Tourism is the principal industry. Watch movements, costume jewelry, pharmaceuticals, and rum are exported. The Virgin Islands were discovered by Columbus in 1493, during his second voyage to America. During the 17th century, individual islands, actually the peaks of a submerged mountain range, were held by Spain, Holland, England, France and Denmark. These islands were also the favorite resorts of the buccaneers operating in the Caribbean and the coastal waters of eastern North America. Control of most of the 100-island group finally passed to Denmark, with England securing the easterly remainder. The Danish islands had their own coinage from the early 18th century, based on but unequal to, Denmark's homeland system. In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, Danish silver coinage augmented the islands currency. The Danish islands were purchased by the United States in 1917 for $25 million, mainly to forestall their acquisition by Germany and because they command the Anegada Passage into the Caribbean Sea, a strategic point on the defense perimeter of the Panama Canal.

The Kingdom of Denmark (Danmark), a constitutional monarchy located at the mouth of the Baltic Sea, has an area of 16,639 sq. mi. (43,070 sq. km.) and a population of 5.2 million. Capital: Copenhagen. Most of the country is arable. Agriculture, is conducted by large farms served by cooperatives. The largest industries are food processing, iron and metal, and shipping. Machinery, meats (chiefly bacon), dairy products and chemicals are exported. Denmark, a great power during the Viking period of the 9th11th centuries, conducted raids on western Europe and England, and in the 11th century united England, Denmark and Norway under the rule of King Canute. Despite a struggle between the crown and the nobility (13th-14th centuries) which forced the King to grant a written constitution, Queen Margaret (Margrethe) (1387-1412) succeeded in uniting Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Greenland under the Danish crown, placing all of the Nordic countries under the rule of Denmark. An unwise alliance with Napoleon caused the loss of Norway to Sweden in 1814. In the following years a liberal movement was fostered, which succeeded in making Denmark a constitutional monarchy in 1849. In 1864, Denmark lost Schleswig and Holstein to Prussia. In 1920, Denmark regained North-Schleswig by plebiscite. The present decimal system of currency was introduced in 1874. As a result of a referendum held September 28, 2000, the currency of the European Monetary Union, the Euro, will not be introduced in Denmark in the foreseeable future.

The Commonwealth of Dominica, situated in the Lesser Antilles midway between Guadeloupe to the north and Martinique to the south, has an area of 290 sq. mi. (750 sq. km.) and a population of 82,608. Capital: Roseau. Agriculture is the chief economic activity of the mountainous island. Bananas are the chief export. Columbus discovered and named the island on Nov. 3, 1493. Spain neglected it and it was finally colonized by the French in 1632. The British drove the French from the island in 1756. Thereafter it changed hands between the French and British a dozen or more times before becoming permanently British in 1805. Around 1761, pierced or mutilated silver from Martinique was used on the island. A council in 1798 acknowledged and established value for these mutilated coins and ordered other cut and countermarked to be made in Dominica. These remained in use until 1862, when they were demonetized and sterling became the standard. Throughout the greater part of its British history, Dominica was a presidency of the Leeward Islands. In 1940 its administration was transferred to the Windward Islands and it was established as a separate colony with considerable local autonomy. From 1955, Dominica was a member of the currency board of the British Caribbean Territories (Eastern Group), which issued its own coins until 1965. Dominica became a West Indies associated state with a built in option for independence in 1967. Full independence was attained on Nov. 3, 1978. Dominica, which has a republican form of government, is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. RULER British, until 1978 MONETARY SYSTEM

The Arab Republic of Egypt, located on the northeastern corner of Africa, has an area of 385,229 sq. mi. (1,1001,450 sq. km.) and a population of 62.4 million. Capital: Cairo. Although Egypt is an almost rainless expanse of desert, its economy is predominantly agricultural. Cotton, rice and petroleum are exported. Other main sources of income are revenues from the Suez Canal, remittances of Egyptian workers abroad and tourism. Egyptian history dates back to about 3000 B.C. when the empire was established by uniting the upper and lower kingdoms. Following its Golden Age (16th to 13th centuries B.C.), Egypt was conquered by Persia (525 B.C.) and Alexander the Great (332 B.C.). The Ptolemies, descended from one of Alexander's generals, ruled until the suicide of Cleopatra (30 B.C.) when Egypt became the private domain of the Roman emperor, and subsequently part of the Byzantine world. Various Muslim dynasties ruled Egypt from 641 on, including Ayyubid Sultans to 1250 and Mamluks to 1517, when it was conquered by the Ottoman Turks, interrupted by the occupation of Napoleon (1798-1801). A semiindependent dynasty was founded by Muhammad Ali in 1805 which lasted until 1952. Turkish rule became increasingly casual, permitting Great Britain to inject its influence by purchasing shares in the Suez Canal. British troops occupied Egypt in 1882, becoming the de facto rulers. On Dec. 14, 1914, Egypt was made a protectorate of Britain. British occupation ended on Feb. 28, 1922, when Egypt became a sovereign, independent kingdom. The monarchy was abolished and a republic proclaimed on June 18, 1953. On Feb. 1, 1958, Egypt and Syria formed the United Arab Republic. Yemen joined on March 8 in an association known as the United Arab States. Syria withdrew from the United Arab Republic on Sept. 29, 1961, and on Dec. 26 Egypt dissolved its ties with Yemen in the United Arab States. On Sept. 2, 1971, Egypt finally shed the name United Arab Republic in favor of the Arab Republic of Egypt.

The original area of Essequibo and Demerary, which included present-day Suriname, French Guiana, and parts of Brazil and Venezuela was sighted by Columbus in 1498.The first European settlement was made late in the 16th century by the Dutch, however, the region was claimed for the British by Sir Walter Raleigh during the reign of Elizabeth I. For the next 150 years, possession alternated between the Dutch and the British, with a short interval of French control. The British exercised de facto control after 1796, although the area, which included the Dutch colonies of Essequibo, Demerary and Berbice, was not ceded to them by the Dutch until 1814. From 1803 to 1831, Essequibo and Demerary were administered separately from Berbice. The three colonies were united in the British Crown Colony of British Guiana in 1831. British Guiana won internal self-government in 1952 and full independence, under the traditional name of Guyana, on May 26,1966. Guyana became a republic on Feb. 23, 1970. It is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. The president is the Chief of State. The prime minister is the Head of Government.

The Peoples Federal Republic of Ethiopia (formerly the Peoples Democratic Republic and the Empire of Ethiopia), Africas oldest independent nation, faces the Red Sea in EastCentral Africa. The country has an area of 424,214 sq. mi. (1,004,390 sq. km.) and a population of 56 million people who are divided among 40 tribes that speak some 270 languages and dialects. Capital: Addis Ababa. The economy is predominantly agricultural and pastoral. Gold and platinum are mined and petroleum fields are being developed. Coffee, oilseeds, hides and cereals are exported. Legend claims that Menelik I, the son born to Solomon, King of Israel, by the Queen of Sheba, settled in Axum in North Ethiopia to establish the dynasty, which reigned with only brief interruptions until 1974. Modern Ethiopian history began with the reign of Emperor Menelik II (1889-1913) under whose guidance the country emerged from medieval isolation. Progress continued throughout the reigns of Menelik's daughter, Empress Zauditu, and her successor Emperor Haile Selassie I who was coronated in 1930. Ethiopia was invaded by Italy in 1935, and together with Italian Somaliland and Eritrea became part of Italian East Africa. Victor Emmanuel III, as declared by Mussolini, would be Ethiopia's emperor as well as a king of Italy. Liberated by British and Ethiopian troops in 1941, Ethiopia reinstated Haile Selassie I to the throne. The 225th consecutive Solomonic ruler was deposed by a military committee on Sept 12, 1974. In July 1976 Ethiopia's military provisional government referred to the country as Socialist Ethiopia. After establishing a new regime in 1991, Ethiopia became a federated state and is now the Federal Republic of Ethiopia. Following 2 years of provisional government, the province of Eritrea held a referendum on independence in May 1993 leading to the proclamation of its independence on May 24. No coins, patterns or presentation pieces are known bearing Emperor Lij Yasu's likeness or titles. Coins of Menelik II were struck during this period with dates frozen.
HARAR
Harar, a province and city located in eastern Ethiopia, was founded by Arab immigrants from Yemen in the 7th century. The sultanate conquered Ethiopia in the mid-16th century, and was in turn conquered by Egypt in 1875 and by Ethiopia in 1887. TITLE
al-Harar RULERS Abd al-Shakur, AH1197-1209/AD1783-1794 Ahmad II, AH1209-1236/AD1794-1821 MONETARY SYSTEM Not known; 22 Mahallak were said to be equal to one Ashrafi. In the late 18th and the 19th century the Ashrafi in Harar was a fictitious medium used in accounts, which varied in value against the Maria Theresa Dollar. In the 1st half of the 19th century, 3 Ashrafi were thought to be one Maria Theresa Dollar. The brass coins are of various sizes, but were probably all called Mahallak'. The denominations of the billon and silver are unknown.

FRANCE
France, the Gaul of ancient times, emerged from the Renaissance as a modern centralized national state which reached its zenith during the reign of Louis XIV (1643-1715) when it became an absolute monarchy and the foremost power in Europe. Although his reign marks the golden age of French culture, the domestic abuses and extravagance of Louis XIV plunged France into a series of costly wars. This, along with a system of special privileges granted the nobility and other favored groups, weakened the monarchy and brought France to bankruptcy. This laid the way for the French Revolution of 1789-99 that shook Europe and affected the whole world. The monarchy was abolished and the First Republic formed in 1793. The new government fell in 1799 to a coup led by Napoleon Bonaparte who, after declaring himself First Consul for life, in 1804 had himself proclaimed Emperor of France and King of Italy. RULERS Louis XIV, 1643-1715 Louis XV, 1715-1774 Louis XVI, 1774-1790 First Republic Constituency, 1791-1792 Convention, 1793-1795 Directory, 1795-1799, L'an 4-7 Consulate, 1799-1803, L'an 8-11 Napoleon as First Consul, 1799-1804 MINT MARKS AND PRIVY MARKS In addition to the date and mint mark which are customary on western civilization coinage, most coins manufactured by the French Mints contain two or three small Marks or Differents as the French call them. These privy marks represent the men responsible for the dies which struck the coins. One privy mark is sometimes for the Engraver General (since 1880 the title is Chief Engraver). The other privy mark is the signature of the Mint Director of each mint; another one is the different' of the local engraver. Three other marks appeared at the end of Louis XIV's reign: one for the Director General of Mints, one for the General Engineer of Mechanical edge-marking, one identifying over struck coins in 1690-1705 and in 1715-1723. Equally amazing and unique is that sometimes the local assayer's or Judge-custody's different or secret pellet appears. Since 1880 this privy mark has represented the office rather than the personage of both the Administration of Coins & Medals and the Mint Director, and a standard privy mark has been used (cornucopia). For most dates these privy marks are important though minor features for advanced collectors or local researchers. During some issue dates, however, the marks changed. To be even more accurate sometimes the marks changed when the date didn't, even though it should have. These coins can be attributed to the proper mintage report only by considering the privy marks. Previous references (before G. Sobin and F. Droulers) have by and large ignored these privy marks. It is entirely possible that unattributed varieties may exist for any privy mark transition. All transition years which may have two or three varieties or combinations of privy marks have the known attribution indicated after the date (if it has been confirmed).

In the late eighteenth century, a series of 2 sous coins was struck for the colony. It is probable that contemporary imitations of these issues, many emanating from Birmingham, England, outnumber the originals. These, both genuine and bogus, host coins for many West Indies counterstamps. As an Overseas Department, Guiana now uses the coins of metropolitan France, however, the franc used in the former colony was always distinct in value from that of the homeland as well as that used in the islands of the French West Indies.

A city located 130 miles northeast of Paris with a population of 190,546. Manufactures textiles, iron, steel, machinery and chemicals and operates sugar refineries, breweries and distilleries. Founded ca.1030, the city was the medieval capital of Flanders but was a possession of Austria and Spain until it was recaptured by Louis XIV. Lille was captured in 1708 and coins were struck while the city was beseiged. It was later restored to France in 1713. The Germans occupied the city from 1914-1918 and it was an important link in the Hindenburg Line during WWI. In 1940 the Germans once again occupied the city and remained until towards the end of WWII in 1944.

Georgia (formerly the Georgian Social Democratic Republic under the U.S.S.R.), is bounded by the Black Sea to the west and by Turkey, Armenia and Azerbaijan. It occupies the western part of Transcaucasia covering an area of 26,900 sq. mi. (69,700 sq. km.) and a population of 5.7 million. Capitol: Tbilisi. Hydro-electricity, minerals, forestry and agriculture are the chief industries. The Georgian dynasty first emerged after the Macedonian victory over the Achaemenid Persian Empire in the 4th century B.C. Roman friendship was imposed in 65 B.C. after Pompey's victory over Mithradates. The Georgians embraced Christianity in the 4th century A.D. During the next three centuries Georgia was involved in the ongoing conflicts between the Byzantine and Persian empires. The latter developed control until Georgia regained its independence in 450-503 A.D. but then it reverted to a Persian province in 533 A.D., then restored as a kingdom by the Byzantines in 562 A.D. It was established as an Arab emirate in the 8th century. The Seljuk Turks invaded but the crusades thwarted their interests. Over the following centuries, Turkish and Persian rivalries along with civil strife divided the area under the two influences. Through significant contributions of Georgian kings (King David the Builder 1089-1124 and King Tamara 1136-1224), Georgia reached its peak of political, economic, and military development from the XI - to the XIII century. During these centuries the significant architectural and literary masterpieces that had won international recognition were created. Georgia had also regained territories that had been invaded by Islamic countries. Czarist Russian interests increased and a treaty of alliance was signed on July 24, 1773 whereby Russia guaranteed Georgian independence and it acknowledged Russian suzerainty. Persia invaded again in 1795 leaving Tiflis in ruins. Russia slowly took over annexing piece-by-piece and soon developed total domination. After the Russian Revolution the Georgians, Armenians, and Azerbaijanis formed the short-lived Transcaucasian Federal Republic on Sept. 20, 1917, which broke up into three independent republics on May 26, 1918. A Germano-- Georgian treaty was signed on May 28, 1918, followed by a Turko-Georgian peace treaty on June 4. The end of WW I and the collapse of the central powers allowed free elections. On May 20, 1920, Soviet Russia concluded a peace treaty, recognizing its independence, but later invaded on Feb. 11, 1921 and a soviet republic was proclaimed. On March 12, 1922 Stalin included Georgia in a newly formed Transcaucasian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic. On Dec. 5, 1936 the T.S.F.S.R. was dissolved and Georgia became a direct member of the U.S.S.R. The collapse of the U.S.S.R. allowed full transition to independence and on April 9, 1991 a unanimous vote declared the republic an independent state based on its original treaty of independence of May 1918.

Although the origin of the German Empire can be traced to the Treaty of Verdun that ceded Charlemagne's lands east of the Rhine to German Prince Louis, it was for centuries little more than a geographic expression, consisting of hundreds of effectively autonomous big and little states. Nominally the states owed their allegiance to the Holy Roman Emperor, who was also a German king, but as the Emperors exhibited less and less concern for Germany the actual power devolved on the lords of the individual states. The fragmentation of the empire climaxed with the tragic denouement of the Thirty Years War, 1618-48, which devastated much of Germany, destroyed its agriculture and medieval commercial eminence and ended the attempt of the Hapsburgs to unify Germany. Deprived of administrative capacity by a lack of resources, the imperial authority became utterly powerless. At this time Germany contained an estimated 1,800 individual states, some with a population of as little as 300. The German Empire of recent history (the creation of Bismarck) was formed on April 14, 1871, when the king of Prussia became German Emperor William I. The new empire comprised 4 kingdoms, 6 grand duchies, 12 duchies and principalities, 3 free cities and the non-autonomous province of Alsace-Lorraine. The states had the right to issue gold and silver coins of higher value than 1 Mark; coins of 1 Mark and under were general issues of the empire.

AACHEN
FREE CITY
(Achen, Urbs Aquensis, Aquis Grani) This city, at the meeting point of Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands, 39 miles (65 Kilometers) west-southwest of Cologne, was founded by the Romans. It is the traditional birthplace of Charlemagne and served as the site for imperial coronations from his time until the early part of the 16th century. An imperial mint was established in Aachen in 1166 and continued in use until the early 14th century, at which time the city was raised to tree status and began producing its own coinage. The city coinage came to an end in 1798, just prior to French annexation in 1801. Prussia gained control of Aachen at the end of the Napoleonic Wars and made it part of its western provinces in 1815.

ANHALT-BERNBURG
Located in north-central Germany. Appeared as part of the patrimony of Albrecht the Bear of Brandenburg in 1170. Bracteates were first made in the 12th century. It was originally in the inheritance of Heinrich the Fat in 1252 and became extinct in 1468. The division of 1603, among the sons of Joachim Ernst, revitalized Anhalt-Bernburg. Bernburg passed to Dessau after the death of Alexander Carl in 1863.

ARENBERG
A small principality with lands between the present-day Belgian border and the Rhine, west of Koblenz. The earliest lords of Arenberg are mentioned in the 12th century. The title and lands passed in marriage to the countship of Mark from where a new line of Arenberg lords began in the 14th century. At the end of the 15th century branch lines were founded in Sedan, Lumain and Rochefort. The male line of Arenberg became extinct in 1541 and passed by marriage to Ligne-Barbancon in 1547. The new line was raised to the rank of count in 1549, to prince in 1576 and to that of duke in 1644. The right to mint coins was granted in 1570. Philipp Franz issued Arenberg's only 17th century thaler. The lands on the left bank of the Rhine were lost to France in 1801 and the remaining possessions were mediatized in 1810.

Founded in the late 9th century in the city of Augsburg, the bishopric eventually extended as far as the Bavarian frontier on the north and east, to Tyrol on the south and to Upper Swabia on the west. The earliest episcopal coinage dates from the mid-10th century and issues continued through each of the next eight and one-half centuries. The bishopric was secularized in 1803 and was absorbed by Bavaria.

Founded by the Romans about 15B.C. and named Augusta Vindelicorum in honor of the Emperor Augustus, the city was the site of a German imperial mint for several centuries from about the year 1000. In 1276, Augsburg was made a free imperial city, but did not receive the right to strike its own coins until 1521. Earlier date issues were produced under the office of the Imperial Chamberlain. Augsburgs coinage came to an end in 1805 and the city followed the bishopric into Bavarian envelopment in the following year.

BADEN-DURLACH LINE
Although Baden-Durlach was founded upon the division of Baden in 1515, the youngest son of Christoph I did not begin ruling in his own right until the demise of his father. This part of Baden was called Pforzheim until 1565, when the margrave moved his seat from the former to Durlach, located to the west and nearer the Rhine. After the male line of Baden-Baden failed in 1771 and the two parts of Baden were reunited, the fortunes of the margraviate continued to grow. Karlsruhe, near Durlach, was developed into a well-planned capital city. The ruler was given the rank of elector in 1803, only to be raised to grand duke three years later. The monarchy came to an end in 1918, but had by this time become one of the largest states in Germany.

BADEN
The earliest rulers of Baden, in the southwestern part of Germany along the Rhine, descended from the dukes of Zhringen in the late 11th century. The first division of the territory occurred in 1190, when separate lines of margraves were established in Baden and in Hachberg. Immediately prior to its extinction in 1418, Hachberg was sold back to Baden, which underwent several minor divisions itself during the next century. Baden acquired most of the Countship of Sponheim from Electoral Pfalz near the end of the 15th century. In 1515, the most significant division of the patrimony took place, in which the Baden-Baden and Baden(Pforzheim) Durlach lines were established. ARMS Baden diagonal bar from upper left to lower right Sponheim checkerboard The usual arrangement is 4-fold arms of Baden quartered with Sponheim.

BISHOPRIC
The bishopric was founded in 1007 by Emperor Heinrich II (1002-24) in the town of Bamberg, 32 miles (53 kilometers) northnorthwest of Nrnberg. The bishops began issuing their own coinage almost from the beginning and were given the rank of Prince of the Empire by the emperor about 1250. The bishopric was secularized in 1801 and was incorporated into Bavaria the following year.

tragedy visit the royal family. Because of his opposition to the parliamentary reform movement, Ludwig I was forced to abdicate in 1848. His grandson, Ludwig II, inspired by his upbringing to spend his fortune building the fairy tale castle of Neuschwanstein, was forcibly removed by court nobles and died under mysterious circumstances in 1886. His younger brother, Otto, was declared insane and the kingdom was ruled by his uncle, the beloved Prince Luitpold, as prince regent. Ludwig II, the last King of Bavaria, was forced to abdicate at the end of World War I.

BAVARIA
(Bayern) One of the largest states in Germany, Bavaria was a duchy from earliest times, ruled by the Agilholfingen dynasty from 553 until it was suppressed by Charlemagne in 788. Bavaria remained a territory of the Carolingian Empire from that time until 911, when the son of the Count of Scheyern was made duke and began a new line of rulers there. A number of dukes during the next century and a half were elected emperor, but when the male line became extinct, Empress Agnes gave Bavaria to the Counts of Nordheim in 1061. His descendant, Heinrich XII the Lion, fell out of favor with the emperor and was deposed. The duchy was then entrusted to Otto VI von Wittelsbach, Count of Scheyern and descendant of the counts who had ruled from the early 10th century. Duke Otto I, as he was known from 1180 on, was the ancestor of the dynasty which ruled in Bavaria until 1918 and, from the late 13th century, in the Rhine Palatinate as well (see Electoral Pfalz). The first of several divisions took place in 1255 when lines in Upper and Lower Bavaria were established. The line in Lower Bavaria became extinct in 1340 and the territory reverted to Upper Bavaria. Meanwhile, the division of Upper Bavaria and the Palatinate took place and was confirmed by treaty in 1329, although the electoral vote residing with the Wittelsbachs was to be held jointly by the two branches. In 1347, Bavaria and all other holdings of the family in Brandenburg, the Tyrol and Holland were divided among six brothers. Munich had become the chief city of the duchy by this time. In 1475, Duke Stephen I, who had reunited most of the familys holdings in Bavaria, died and left three sons who promptly divided their patrimony once again. The lines of Ingolstadt, Landshut and Munich were founded, but as the other lines died out, the one seated in Munich regained control of all of Bavaria. Duke Albrecht IV instituted primogeniture in 1506 and from that time on, Bavaria remained united. When Elector Friedrich V of the Palatinate (Pfalz) was elected King of Bohemia in 1618, an event which helped precipitate the Thirty Years War, Duke Maximilian I of Bavaria sided with the emperor against his kinsman. The electoral dignity had been given to the Pfalz branch of the Wittelsbachs by the Golden Bull of 1356, a fact which was a source of contention with the Bavarian branch of the family. With the ouster of Friedrich V, Maximilian I obtained the electoral right and control of the Palatinate in 1623, then also ruled over the Upper Palatinate (Oberpfalz) from 1628 until the conclusion of the war and the Peace of Westphalia.

BENTHEIMTECKLENBURG-RHEDA
The countship of Tecklenburg was located about halfway between the cities of Mnster and Osnabrck in Westphalia and was acquired by Bentheim through marriage during the first half of the 13th century and the separate line of Bentheim-Tecklenburg was founded in 1269. The lordship of Rheda, to the southeast of Tecklenburg, was acquired by marriage in the mid-14th century. After the reunification of the 16th century, a new line of Bentheim-Tecklenburg-Rheda was founded in 1606. The county of Tecklenburg was lost to Solms in 1696, then sold to Prussia in 1707. Rheda was mediatized in 1805.

BRANDENBURG
The territory which was to become Brandenburg was inhabited by various Slavic tribes in the early Middle Ages. Charlemagne managed to diminish their power to some extent, but they regained their control after his passing. The Slav capital at Brennibor was captured by Emperor Heinrich I (918-36) and from that place Brandenburg takes its name. A series of margraves more or less continued to press the Slav tribes, but some were so ineffectual that the Slavs regained much of their former domains, especially after the death of Emperor Otto I (973). The early 12th century saw the return to active warfare against the Slavs. In 1134, the conquered lands were divided into the Altmark (Old or North Mark), west of the Elbe River, the Mittelmark (Middle Mark), between the Elbe and the Oder, and the Neumark (New Mark), east of the Oder River. Duke Lothar of Saxony appointed Albrecht the Bear of Ballenstdt as Margrave of the Nordmark (Altmark) and his long reign until 1170 brought stability to the lands under his control. The Ascanian rulers consolidated their power in Brandenburg and eventually obtained the electoral dignity in the 13th century. When the dynasty in Brandenburg became extinct, title passed to Emperor Ludwig III of Bavaria (1314-47), who made his eldest son ruler there. The margraviate continued to be ruled by members of the various imperial families or their appointees until the early 15th century. The Hohenzollerns of Swabia, who had been hereditary burgraves of Nrnberg since the late 12th century, acquired a mortgage on Brandenburg from the perpetually impecunious Emperor. In a stroke, Friedrich VI of Nrnberg became Elector Friedrich I of Brandenburg in 1415, thus placing the family into position to become rulers of the future most powerful state of the Empire. Several of the Electors sons ruled in the Hohenzollern possessions of Franconia (see Brandenburg in Franconia) and two founded the lines of Brandenburg-Ansbach and BrandenburgBayreuth (which see). Elector Johann Sigismund inherited the Duchy of Prussia in 1618 and the electorate was known henceforth as Brandenburg-Prussia. The Electorate sided with the Protestant cause during the Thirty Years War, having submitted to the Reformation in 1539. The lessons of the war brought about the buildup of military power and territorial expansion under Friedrich Wilhelm, the Great Elector, which formed the basis of the Hohenzollerns rise as a leading power in Europe. Johann Sigismunds great grandson assumed the title of King in Prussia in 1701 and the old margraviate of Brandenburg became just a province of the Kingdom. See Prussia for subsequent history and coin issues. RULERS Friedrich III, 1688-1701 As Friedrich I, King of Prussia, 1701-1713 Friedrich Wilhelm I, 1713-1740 MINT OFFICIALS INITIALS

A small countship centered on the town of the same name 8 miles (13.5 kilometers) southwest of Halberstadt, just on the northern flank of the Harz Mountains. The line of counts which had ruled from the late 11th century fell extinct in 1368. Lands and titles passed to the counts of Regenstein who also died out in 1599 (see Regenstein). Blankenburg and Regenstein were divided among Brunswick and Brandenburg. In the first half of the 18th century, a rather scarce and short-lived coinage issue was struck in the vicinity of the mines of the Brunswick portion which had been placed under the control of Duke Ludwig Rudolf of Brunswick-Wolfenbttel and made a sovereign principality for him from 1714 to 1731.

Archbishop Albrecht II granted the mint right to the city in 1369, but this was not formalized by imperial decree until 1541. In 1646, Bremen was raised to free imperial status and continued to strike its own coins into the early 20th century. The city lost its free imperial status in 1803 and was controlled by France from 1806 until 1813. Regaining it independence in 1815, Bremen joined the North German Confederation in 1867 and the German Empire in 1871.

The site was settled in the early 10th century and a bishopric was soon established in close proximity to the town. The bishop was made a Prince of the Empire in 1290 and he obtained the right to coin money at the same time. The fortunes of the bishopric closely followed those of the city. The portion of territory which came into the possession of Prussia was secularized in 1810.

After its founding in the early 10th century, Breslau was subject to Poland until it became the capital of the Duchy of Middle Silesia in 1163. Duke Heinrich VI gave the already semi-autonomous city the mint right in 1318. Breslau came under the rule of Bohemia in 1360 and for most of the time up until 1526 maintained some semblance of independence. In that year, all of Bohemia and Silesia became Habsburg domains, but as a result of a war with Prussia, Breslau was ceded to the latter in 1741. A city coinage was struck until about the early 18th century, and a Prussian mint operated in Breslau from about 1750 until the late 19th century.

BRUNSWICKBLANKENBURG
A county located in the Harz Mountains to the southwest of Halberstadt, Blankenburg was established in the late 11th century. The line was divided into Blankenburg and Regenstein in 1162 and, when Blankenburg became extinct in 1368, its lands and titles reverted to Regenstein. In 1599, Regenstein itself became extinct and both titles fell to Brunswick. A short-lived separate line for Blankenburg was established from Brunswick-Wolfenbttel in the early 18th century for which coins were issued.

BRUNSWICKWOLFENBUTTEL
(Braunschweig-Wolfenbttel) Located in north-central Germany. Wolfenbttel was annexed to Brunswick in 1257. One of the five surviving sons of Albrecht II founded the first line in Wolfenbttel in 1318. A further division in Wolfenbttel and Lneburg was undertaken in 1373. Another division occurred in 1495, but the Wolfenbttel duchy survived in the younger line. Heinrich IX was forced out of his territory during the religious wars of the mid-sixteenth century by Duke Johann Friedrich I of Saxony and Landgrave Philipp of Hessen in 1542, but was restored to his possessions in 1547. Duke Friedrich Ulrich was forced to cede the Grubenhagen lands, which had been acquired by Wolfenbttel in 1596, to Lneburg in 1617. When the succession died out in 1634, the lands and titles fell to the cadet line in Dannenberg. The line became extinct once again and passed to Brunswick-Bevern in 1735 from which a new succession of Wolfenbttel dukes descended. The ducal family was beset by continual personal and political tragedy during the nineteenth century. Two of the dukes were killed in battles with Napoleon, the territories were occupied by the French and became part of the Kingdom of Westphalia, another duke was forced out by a revolt in 1823. From 1884 until 1913, Brunswick-Wolfenbttel was governed by Prussia and then turned over to a younger prince of Brunswick who married a daughter of Kaiser Wilhelm II. His reign was short, however, as he was forced to abdicate at the end of World War I. RULERS Rudolf August, 1666-1704 Anton Ulrich, as joint ruler, 1685-1704 alone, 1704-1714 August Wilhelm, 1714-1731

Eventually, the first two won out and made a pact to divide the territories between them. Brandenburg-Prussia obtained Cleves, Mark and Ravensberg, while Pfalz-Neuburg received Jlich and Berg. Saxony refused to give up its claims and, though never managing to obtain any territory, the dukes continued to place the arms of Cleves on their coinage throughout the rest of the 17th century. The rulers of Brandenburg-Prussia and Pfalz-Neuburg struck a joint coinage in the disputed territories until the formal division in 1624. The special coinage of Brandenburg-Prussia for Mark and Ravensberg are included under those place names.

CLEVES
(Cleve, Kleve) The countship, later duchy, of Cleves, located on both sides of the Rhine at the Dutch border, had its beginnings in the early 11th century. It passed in marriage to the counts of Mark in 1368, who were raised to the rank of duke in Cleves in 1417. In 1511 Jlich, Berg and Ravensberg were obtained by marriage. The last duke died in 1609 without a male heir, causing a great struggle for the various territories between Pfalz-Neuburg, Bran-

COESFELD
(Cosveldt) The town of Coesfeld in Westphalia is located on the Berkel River some 19 miles (32 kilometers) west of Mnster. Although Coesfeld belonged to the bishops of Mnster, it was permitted to issue a local minor coinage from the late 16th century until 1763. When the bishopric was secularized in 1802, Coesfeld was acquired by the Rhinegraves of Salm. The latters territories were soon mediatized in 1806 and became a part of Joachim Murats grand duchy of Berg. Coesfeld finally passed to Prussia along with the rest of Berg at the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars.

ARCHBISHOPRIC
(Kln) A bishopric was established in the city of Roman foundation in 313 and transformed into an archbishopric by Charlemagne in 785. Joint issues of coinage by the archbishops and the emperors began in the mid-10th century and the first independent ecclesiastic issues appeared in the late 11th century. Upon the breakup of the old duchy of Saxony in 1180, the archbishop obtained the duchy of Westphalia. The archbishops became Electors of the Empire by the Gold Bull of 1356 and continued to gain power and territory during the ensuing centuries. In 1801, Cologne was secularized and its lands west of the Rhine were taken by France. Several principalities divided Colognes territories east of the Rhine, the largest portions having been taken by Hesse-Darmstadt and Nassau.

The town grew in importance after becoming the site of a bishopric and later an archbishopric. For two centuries beginning about the mid-10th century, Cologne contained an imperial mint. The archbishops had nominal control of the city until the 12th century. In 1201, Cologne joined the Hanseatic League and gained the right to govern itself in 1288. As the commercial importance of Cologne rose through membership in the League, it finally gained the mint right in 1474 and was soon striking its own coinage. The city remained in the Catholic fold after the Reformation, but its importance as a commercial center wqned during the next several centuries. The French occupied Cologne in 1794 and annexed it three years later. At the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815, it was acquired by Prussia.

CONSTANCE
BISHOPRIC
(Konstanz, Kostnitz, Costnitz) This bishopric, which is centered on the city of the same name, was transferred to that location from Vindinissa in Aargau late in the 6th century. The first episcopal coinage was produced at the end of the 9th century and minting continued intermittently during the next 850 years. By the time of the Protestant Reformation, the bishop had become a Prince of the Empire and ruled over a large expanse of territory encompassing much of what is now southwest Germany and northern Switzerland. In 1527, Bishop Hugo refused to submit to the Reformation and was forced to flee the city. He went to Meersburg, across the lake on the north shore, and it became the bishops residence until the diocese was secularized in 1802. It was acquired by Baden along with the city at that time.

FREE CITY
Located at the western end of the Bodensee (Lake Constance) and on the German-Swiss border, Constance stands on the site of the late Roman fortress of Constantia. When the bishopric in Aargau was transferred to the place shortly before 600, the town began to grow in importance. An Imperial mint was established in Constance at the beginning of the 11th century and it functioned until about 1250. Constance became an imperial free city in either 1192 or 1255, but the bishop controlled most of its affairs at least until the Protestant Reformation. The city joined the League of Schmalkalden in 1530, but was the lone Protestant holdout in the region after 1547. Karl V took Constance in 1548 and incorporated it into his Austrian realm. The city retained its coinage rights, however, and continued minting until about 1733. Constance became part of Baden in 1803. ARMS Cross, horizontal bar usually shaded, often a single-headed eagle above.

CORVEY
(Corvei-Corbie-Corbey-Curbei) Located on the Weser River just east of Hxter in Westphalia, the Benedictine abbey of Corvey was founded in 820 at the instigation of Emperor Ludwig the Pious (814-40) by monks from the monastery of Corbei in Picardy. Not long after it was established, the new abbey received the mint right as stated in the surviving document dated 1 June 833. Over the next several decades, Corvey also received the right to mint coins in several nearby towns including Marsberg and Meppen. Except for a long period between about 1370 and 1500, Corvey produced a long series of coinage. In 1793, the abbey was transformed into a bishopric, but did not long remain an independent entity. Corvey was secularized in 1803 and its territory was acquired by Nassau-Dietz the same year. After having been incorporated into the Kingdom of Westphalia (1807-13) during the Napoleonic Wars, Corvey was absorbed by Prussia in 1813. Corvey struck some joint issues with Hxter and these are included here.

EAST FRIESLAND
(Ostfriesland) The countship, and later principality, of East Friesland was located along the North Sea coast between the Rivers Ems and Weser. By the late 14 th and early 15 th centuries, several powerful families controlled various areas of what was to become the countship. The Cirksena family of Greetsyl managed to emerge during this period as a leading force in the region through astute marriages and sometimes by armed might. Ulrich I Cirksena was created the first count of East Friesland in 1454. This confirmed his line as the ruling dynasty with the capital at Aurich. In 1654,

ERFURT
(Erfordia) The city of Erfurt is located in northern Thuringia (Thringen), about 12.5 miles (21 kilometers) west of Weimar. It was a place of some importance as early as 741 when it became a branch bishopric of Mainz. The archbishops of the latter city remained very much involved in the affairs of Erfurt throughout the High Middle Ages and even located one of their mints there from the 11th through the 13th centuries. An imperial mint also produced coinage in Erfurt during the 12th century. By the mid13th century, however, the town gained enough power to force the archbishop to grant it self-governing rights. Erfurt was given the right to mint its own coins in 1341 and 1354, and a long series of coins began which lasted until the beginning of the 19th century. Having joined the Hanseatic League during the early 15th century, Erfurt was at the height of its power and prestige, but events began to cause the decline of the city. Saxony managed to wrest control of Erfurt away from Mainz in 1483. During the Thirty Years War, the city was seized and occupied by Swedish forces in 1631. The treaties which ended the war in 1648 gave control of Erfurt back to Mainz, but the good citizens refused to submit. The city held out until 1664 when it was captured by the archbishops forces. It remained under Mainz until 1803, when the archbishopric was secularized, and then passed to Prussia.

EINBECK
(Eimbeck) The town of Einbeck, near the confluence of the Leine and Ilme Rivers, 38 miles (65 kilometers) south of Hannover, was associated early on with the nearby monastery of St. Alexander which was founded about 1080. Its first mention as a town came in 1274 and soon thereafter it was the location of a mint for the dukes of Brunswick-Grubenhagen. At some point during the 15th century, Einbeck obtained the mint right and began striking its own local coinage in 1498. By an edict of Johann Friedrich, Duke of Brunswick-Lneburg-Calenberg (1665-79) in 1674, the minting of silver coinage was halted, but the town continued striking undated copper pfennigs until 1717. Arms: Large Gothic E, later in 17th century, a Latin E Reference: B = Heinrich Buck, Die Mnzen der Stadt Einbeck. Hildeshiem and Leipzig, 1939.

ERBACH
KM# 40 PFENNIG
The lords of Erbach, located in the Odenwalde about 20 miles to the southeast of Darmstadt, are known from the early 12th century. Beginning in the early 13th century and lasting until 1806, the rulers of Erbach held the office of hereditary cupbearer to the elector-counts palatine of the Rhine. The rank of count was obtained from the emperor in 1532. The countship was divided by the four sons of Georg IV in 1605, although they struck a joint coinage. The family patrimony was further divided during the later 17th and early 18th centuries. Only some rulers of the several branches struck coins. Erbach was mediatized and its lands went to HesseDarmstadt in 1806. RULERS Philipp Ludwig, 1693-1720 Friedrich Karl, 1720-1731 Georg Wilhelm, 1731-1757 Unc

ESSEN
The city of Essen lies in the Ruhr Valley, about 18 miles (30 kilometers) northeast of Dsseldorf and about the same distance west of Dortmund. A Benedictine abbey for women was founded in the place during the first half of the 9th century and the town of Essen grew up around the religious institution. The earliest coinage was of the imperial type pfennigs dating from the first half of the 11 th century. The abbess attained the distinction as a princess of the Empire in 1275 and it is from that time that coinage of the abbesses themselves first dates. In the general secularization of the Empire in 1802-03, Essen was given to Prussia, but passed to Berg in 1806. Prussia regained possession of the monastery and city at the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815. There was no coinage during the 16th century. RULERS Bernhardine Sophie, Grafin von Ostfriesland-Ritberg, 1691-1726 Francesca Christine, Grafin von Pfalz-Sulzbach, 1726-1776 Maria Kunigunde, Grafin von Sachsen, 1776-1803
FRANCONIAN CIRCLE
(Frankischer Kreis) The Holy Roman Empire was divided into six administrative circles in 1500, the number being raised to ten in 1512. The Franconian Circle was one of these and comprised about the same territory as the ancient division of Franconia, north of Bavaria. Under the imperial coinage reforms of 1559 and 1566, the Franconian Circle was permitted to have only four mints at Nremberg, Schwabach, Wertheim and Wrzburg, although others were opened at various times. During the 17th and 18th centuries a sporadic coinage of the Franconian Circle was produced at one or another of these mints. The circle also counterstamped coins from other territories entering its jurisdiction. MINT MARKS F - Furth Mint N - Nremberg Mint S - Schwabach Mint MINT OFFICIALS INITIALS Initials Date Name GFN 1682-1710 Georg Friedrich Nurnberger NOTE: The usual design of most coins of the Franconian Circle incorporates the four arms of Bamberg, Brandenburg-Ansbach, Brandenburg-Bayreuth and Nuremberg.

FRANKFURT AM MAIN
One of the largest cities of modern Germany, Frankfurt is located on the north bank of the Main River about 25 miles (42 kilometers) upstream from where it joins the Rhine at Mainz. It was the site of a Roman camp in the first century. Frankfurt was a commercial center from the early Middle Ages and became a favored location for imperial councils during the Carolingian period because of its central location. An imperial mint operated from early times and had a large production during the 12 th to 14 th centuries. Local issues were produced from at least the mid-14 th century, but it was not until 1428 that the city was officially granted the right to coin its own money. In establishing the seven permanent electors of the Empire in 1356, the Golden Bull also made Frankfurt the site of those elections and increased the prestige of the city even further. Frankfurt remained a free city until 1806 and then was the capital of the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt from 1810 until 1814, only to regain its free status in 1815. The city chose the wrong side in the Austro-Prussian War of 1866 and thus was absorbed by victorious Prussia in the latter year. MINT MARKS F - Frankfurt MINT OFFICIALS iNITIALS

Located in Baden about 35 miles north of Basel and east of the Rhine, Freiburg was a free city in the early 12th century. A century later the city lost its free status when it fell to the counts of Urach. In 1368, Freiburg became a Hapsburg possession and it remained so until 1803. In 1805 the city was united to Baden. Freiburg struck coins from the 14th century until 1739. As a member of the Rappenmnzbund from 1387 until 1584, Freiburg struck coins in accordance with the provisions of that monetary union of South German and Swiss entities. ARMS Ravens head, usually turned to the left. REFERENCES B = Udo Becker, Freiburger Mnzen , Freiburg im Breisgau, 1970.

FRIEDBERG
(Burg Friedberg in der Wetterau) The fortified town of Friedberg, located in Hesse about 15 miles (25 kilometers) north of Frankfurt am Main, dates from Roman times. It attained free status in 1211 and was the site of an imperial mint until the mid-13th century. In 1349 Friedberg passed to the countship of Schwarzburg, losing its free status shortly thereafter. Local nobles began electing one among themselves to the office of burgrave-for-life. The burgraves obtained the mint right in 1541 and recognized only the emperor as overlord. In 1802 Friedberg passed in fief to Hesse-Darmstadt and was mediatized in 1818.

A wealthy banking and commercial family of Augsburg, which first came into prominence about 1370 and became the bankers of the Hapsburgs by 1475. In 1500 they were given the county of Kirchberg and the lordship of Weissenborn (in Swabia) as security for a loan. The emperor made them hereditary counts of these areas and gave them the mint right in 1534. There was a complicated succession with many lines and few coin issuers.

GOSLAR
FREE CITY
The small city of Goslar is located on the northern flank of the Harz Mountains, about 26 miles (44 kilometers) west of Halberstadt. It was founded as a free city by Emperor Heinrich I (918936) about the year 920 and was later a royal residence, as well as the site of an imperial mint. Goslar was ideally situated close to mines in the Harz Mountains which produced an abundance of metals including copper and silver among others. The growing town became a member of the Hanseatic League in the mid-14th century and was soon producing its own coinage. The free imperial status of Goslar came to an end in 1802 when it passed to the rule of Prussia. It became a part of the Kingdom of Westphalia from 1807 until 1813, after which it was returned to Prussia for a short time. It was then assigned to Hannover in the peace which ended the Napoleonic Wars in 1815. When Hannover was annexed by Prussia in 1866, Goslar was once again in the Prussian fold.

HALL
(Schwbisch Hall) (Hall am Kocher) This city in Swabia, situated on the River Kocher 34 miles (56 kilometers) northeast of Stttgart, was founded at an early date, probably because of the presence of natural salt in the area. Small silver coins struck beginning in the second half of the 12th century and called haller were the origin of both the denomination and its name which has come down over the centuries as heller. Hall was made a free imperial city in 1276 and was given the right to strike its own coins in 1396. The city soon began to mint hellers with an open hand on the obverse and a cross on the reverse. These coins became known as handelshellers and the hand became the symbol of the city. Hall produced some coins during each of the following centuries, but total mintages were never very high. Most coins issued during the 18th century were commemorative in nature and usually only struck in a single year. The last city coins were produced in 1798. Wrttemberg annexed the city in 1803 as part of Napoleons consolidation plans for Germany.

HAMBURG
The city of Hamburg is located on the Elbe River about 75 miles from the North Sea. It was founded by Charlemagne in the 9th century. In 1241 it joined Lbeck to form the Hanseatic League. The mint right was leased to the citizens in 1292. However, the first local halfpennies had been struck almost 50 years earlier. In 1510 Hamburg was formally made a Free City, though, in fact, it had been free for about 250 years. It was occupied by the French during the Napoleonic period. In 1866 it joined the North German Confederation and became a part of the German Empire in 1871. The Hamburg coinage is almost continuous up to the time of World War I.

HENNEBERG
The line of counts of Henneberg in southern Thuringia, who traced their ancestors back to the late eighth century became extinct in 1583. The territories went mostly to Saxony with smaller parts to Hesse-Cassel and Brandenburg. Several Saxon duchies issued coins at Ilmenau. In 1660 Henneberg was divided again and redistributed among the duchies of both Albertine Saxony (Electoral Saxony and Saxe-Zeitz) and Ernestine Saxony (SaxeGotha and Saxe-Weimar). Each struck coins for its portion.

Part of the Henneberg lands belonging to Electoral Saxony, the princely countship of Schleusingen came under the control of the duke of Saxe-Zeitz after the division of 1660. A small number of coins were minted for use in the district during the early 18th century. When the line became extinct in 1718, the territory returned to the direct control of Saxony, which issued coins for all Henneberg later in the century.

HESSE-CASSEL
(Hessen-Kassel) The Hesse principalities were located for the most part north of the Main River, bounded by Westphalia on the west, the Brunswick duchies on the north, the Saxon-Thuringian duchies on the east and Rhine Palatinate and the bishoprics of Mainz and Fulda on the south. The rule of the landgraves of Hesse began in the second half of the 13th century, the dignity of Prince of the Empire being acquired in 1292. In 1567 the patrimony was divided by four surviving sons, only those of Cassel and Darmstadt surviving for more than a generation in Hesse-Cassel the landgrave was raised to the rank of elector in 1803. The electorate formed part of the Kingdom of Westphalia from 1806 to 1813. In 1866 HesseCassel was annexed by Prussia and became the province of Hesse-Nassau.

HESSE-DARMSTADT
Established by the division of the Landgraviate of Hesse in 1567, Hesse-Darmstadt was the territorially smaller of the two surviving branches of the family. The ruler was raised to the rank of Grand Duke in 1806.

HESSE-HOMBURG
Located in west central Germany, Hesse-Homburg was created from part of Hesse-Darmstadt in 1622. The landgraviate had six villages, along with Homburg (today Bad Homburg), and is mostly known for its famous landgrave, Friedrich II. Commander of the Brandenburg cavalry, Friedrich II (with the silver leg) won the Battle of Fehrbellin in 1675. Hesse-Homburg was mediatized to Hesse-Darmstadt during 1801-15, after which it acquired full sovereignty once again, along with the lordship of Meisenheim. The Homburg line became extinct in 1866, and along with HesseDarmstadt, was annexed by Prussia.

BISHOPRIC
A bishopric located in Westphalia, about 18 miles southeast of Hannover, was established in 822. The first mint was installed in the Mundburg Castle c. 977. Hildesheim coins were minted there although the bishopric didn't legally receive the mint right until 1054. There was no episcopal coinage during most of the 16th century, the first being produced only during the reign of Ernst of Bavaria. In 1803 it was secularized and assigned to Prussia. From 1807-1813 it formed part of the Kingdom of Westphalia and in 1813 was given to Hannover. RULERS Jobst Edmund von Brabeck, 1688-1702 Josef Clemens of Bavaria, elected 1702 installed 1714-1723 Clemens August of Bavaria, 1724-1761 Sede Vacante, 1761-1763 Friedrich Wilhelm, Bishop, 1763-1789 Franz Egon, 1789-1803

HOHENLOHE
A countship located in the vicinity of Uffenheim in Franconia and originally centered on the village and castle of present-day Hohlach. The ruling family derived its name from the placename and has been traced back as far as the 10th century. The counts gradually acquired various territories between Offenheim to Bad Mergentheim and beyond that became the basis for the many branches of the dynasty. The first of these was Weikersheim with its castle overlooking the confluence of the Vorbach with the Tauber River. In 1472, the surviving elder branch of counts was divided into Hohenlohe-Weikersheim and Hohenlohe Neuenstein. The former became extinct in 1545 and its lands reverted to Hohenlohe-Neuenstein, which itself was divided once again into Hohenlohe-Neuenstein-Neuenstein (Protestant) and Hohenlohe-Neuenstein-Waldenburg (Catholic) in 1551. HohenloheNeuenstein-Neuenstein was further divided in 1610 (see) and Hohenlohe-Neuenstein-Waldenburg underwent the same process in 1600 with the establishment of Hohenlohe-WaldenburgPfedelbach, Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Schillingsfrst and Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Waldenburg. See the sections under each of these branches for the subsequent history of each. The lands of all branches of Hohenlohe were mediatized in 1806 and passed to Bavaria and Wrttemberg.

JEVER
JEVER
A lordship lying on the North Sea coast, Jever's earliest coinage dates from the late 10th and early 11th centuries. For several centuries Jever experienced political disintegration until one powerful lord united the district in the early 15th century. The noble line fell extinct in 1575 and Jever passed by marriage to Oldenburg, then successively to Anhalt-Zerbst in 1667, Russia in 1793, Holland in 1807, Russia again in 1813, and finally to Oldenburg again in 1818. The coinage struck for Jever under Oldenburg can be distinguished by prominence given to the Jever arms - a lion rampant to the left usually in a central shield imposed over the four-fold arms of Oldenburg and Delmenhorst. RULERS Karl Wilhelm von Anhalt-Zerbst, 1667-1718 Johann August von Anhalt-Zerbst, 1718-1742 Johann Ludwig von Anhalt-Zerbst, 1742-1746 and Christian August von Anhalt-Zerbst, 1742-1747 Johanna Elisabeth von Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp, 1747-1752 Friedrich August of Anhalt-Zerbst, 1753-1793 Friederike Auguste Sophie, 1793-1807 REFERENCE M = Johann Friedrich L.

JULICH-BERG
The earliest counts of Jlich, located between Aachen and the Rhine (see Jlich, City), are known from the mid-9th century. Successive counts added territories to the nucleus of their domains and obtained the mint right in 1237. Count Wilhelm V (1328-62) attained the rank of Margrave in 1336 and was raised to that of Duke as Wilhelm I in 1356. His son, Wilhelm II, married Maria of Geldern, thus enlarging the duchy greatly. His younger brother married the heiress of Berg (along the east bank of the Rhine) and Ravensberg (in Westphalia). Geldern passed to the Egmont family in 1423 for lack of legitimate heirs in the Jlich line. Jlich itself fell to the younger branch of the family in BergRavensberg in the same year. From this time on, the duchy was known as Jlich-Berg. Wilhelm IV died in 1511 without a male heir and his daughter, Maria, had married Duke Johann III of Cleve the year before. In 1521, the three duchies were united as JlichCleve Berg (see). Following the great controversy after the death of Duke Johann Wilhelm in 1609, Jlich and Berg were occupied jointly by Brandenburg and Pfalz-Neuburg. The latter acquired Jlich-Berg outright in 1624, while Cleve, Mark and Ravensberg went to Brandenburg-Prussia. The dual duchy remained with the Wittelsbachs of the Palatinate until 1801, in which year France occupied it. In the peace settlement at the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815, Jlich-Berg was given to Prussia.

KEMPTEN
ABBEY
The site of Kempten, 81 miles southwest of Munich, predates the Roman town known as Cambodunum. A monastery was founded there as early as 752 from St. Gall (in present-day Switzerland), but the famous abbey was refounded in 773/4 by Hildegard, wife of Charlemagne. A town grew up around the abbey and was the site of an imperial mint from the early 13th century. In 1289 Kempten became a free imperial city and in 1348 the abbot became a prince of the empire. The city obtained the right to mint coins in 1510 and struck a series from 1511 until 1730. The abbots struck coins in the 12th and 13th centuries, then again from 1572 infrequently until 1748. In 1803 the abbey was secularized and, together with the city, was joined to Bavaria.

LANDAU
First mentioned in 1106, this city in Bavaria was 30 miles southwest of Mannheim. A monastery was founded there in 1276 and it became an imperial free city in 1291. It was occupied by the French from 1680-1815. Two sieges took place, 1702 and 1713, during both of which coins were struck. With Prince Charles Alexander of Wrttemberg as commander, Landau was besieged from June 25, 1713 to August 20, 1713, by the French, commanded by the Duc de Villars.

This free imperial city in Swabia, about 15 miles north of Isny, is mentioned in the mid-8th century. Its imperial city status dates from the 13th century. Leutkirch rarely exercised its right of coinage, preferring rather to join other Swabian towns in currency unions.

The line of rulers of this Saxon duchy became extinct in 1689 and passed to Brunswick-Lneburg-Celle, then to BrunswickLneburg-Calenberg-Hannover in 1705. After the Napoleonic Wars, Lauenburg went to Prussia in 1813, to Denmark in 1814, and was regained by Prussia as part of the latter's annexation of Holstein in 1864. The Brunswick duches struck special coins for Lauenburg. See Saxe-Lauenburg for coinage prior to 1689.

LINDAU
A city located on the northeast shore of Lake Constance, Lindau dates from the early 9th century. After acquiring the status of free imperial city in 1274, a local coinage was produced for Lindau on and off during the next 5 centuries. During the Kipper Period of the Thirty Years' War, a variety of coins from South German issuing authorities were counterstamped with the linden tree symbol of Lindau. These are not listed here. In 1732 a joint coinage with the towns of Isny, Wangen, and Leutkirch was struck. After the Napoleonic Wars, in 1805, Lindau was made a part of Bavaria. MINT

LIPPE-DETMOLD
The Counts of Lippe ruled over a small state in northwestern Germany. In 1528/9 they became counts; in 1720 they were raised to the rank of princes, but did not use the title until 1789. Another branch of the family ruled the even smaller SchaumburgLippe. Lippe joined North German Confederation in 1866, and became part of the German Empire in 1871. When the insane Prince Alexander succeeded to the throne in 1895, the main branch reached an end, and a ten-year testamentary dispute between the Biesterfeld and the Schaumburg-Lippe lines followed - a Wilhelmine cause celebre. The Biesterfeld line gained the principality in 1905, but abdicated in 1918. In 1947 Lippe was absorbed by the German Land of North Rhine-Westphalia.

LORRAINE
(Lothringen) Lorraine was established as a kingdom for Lothaire in the mid-9th century and was a part of the Carolingian Empire. It emerged as a duchy in the early 10th century and eventually became a buffer state between Germany and France. By 955, following several revolts which had their roots in Lorraine, Emperor Otto I (936-73) divided the territory in Lower Lorraine, which later became Brabant, and Upper Lorraine, the region which stretched along the Meuse and Mosel Rivers southwards to Burgundy. It is the latter entity, often associated with Alsace (see), which has come down to modern Europe as Lorraine. The duchy was often a source of contention between the emperors and the kings of France, especially in the 17th century. France occupied it several times, from 1634-41, 1643-44, 165461, and 1673-75, and then again 1690-97. In 1736, Duke Franz III married Maria Theresa, daughter of Emperor Karl VI and reigned as Emperor Franz I (1745-65). He exchanged Lorraine with France at the end of 1736 and received the Grand Duchy of Tuscany as compensation in the following year. The former King of Poland, Stanislaw Leszczinski, succeeded Franz III (I) in Lorraine, but the duchy was finally incorporated into France upon his death in 1766. Along with Alsace, Lorraine was acquired by the German Empire after the defeat of France by Prussia in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. The Treaty of Versailles returned Alsace and Lorraine to France in 1919.

FREE CITY
Lbeck became a free city of the empire in 1188 and from c. 1190 into the 13th century an imperial mint existed in the town. It was granted the mint right in 1188, 1226 and 1340, but actually began its first civic coinage c.1350. Occupied by the French during the Napoleonic Wars, it was restored as a free city in 1813 and became part of the German Empire in 1871.

MAINZ
Mainz, located on the Rhine 25 miles west of Frankfurt, became an archbishopric in 747. It was a residence and mint of Charlemagne, and the Imperial Mint established then functioned into the 11th century. The archbishops were recognized as presidents of the electoral college and arch-chancellors of the Empire by the Golden Bull of 1356. In 1797, Mainz was ceded to France and in 1801 the French annexed all of the territories on the left bank of the Rhine. The remaining lands were secularized in 1803 and portions were divided between Hesse-Darmstadt, Nassau and Prussia. Mainz became a Free City of the Empire in 1118 but lost the title in 1163 through an unsuccessful revolt against ecclesiastical authority. They obtained the mint right in 1420 but rarely availed itself of the privilege. It was occupied by Sweden from 1631 to 1635 during the 30 Years War. Siege coins were struck in 1793 when the French garrison was beseiged by the Prussians.

MECKLENBURGSCHWERIN
The duchy of Mecklenburg was located along the Baltic coast between Holstein and Pomerania. Schwerin was annexed to Mecklenburg in 1357. During the Thirty Years' War, the dukes of Mecklenburg sided with the Protestant forces against the emperor. Albrecht von Wallenstein, the imperialist general, ousted the Mecklenburg dukes from their territories in 1628. They were restored to their lands in 1632. In 1658 the Mecklenburg dynasty was divided into two lines. No coinage was produced for Mecklenburg-Schwerin from 1708 until 1750. The 1815 Congress of Vienna elevated the duchy to the status of grand duchy and it became a part of the German Empire in 1871 until 1918 when the last grand duke abdicated. RULERS Friedrich Wilhelm, 1692-1713 Karl Leopold, 1713-1747 Christian Ludwig II, 1747-1756 Friedrich II, 1756-1785 Friedrich Franz I, 1785-1837

MEMMINGEN
This former free imperial city is located in southern Bavaria, about 35 miles southwest of Augsburg. It is the site of an early church foundation of the mid-8th century, but the town itself is mentioned only from the first part of the 11th century. In 1286, free city status and mint rights were granted. The town struck bracteates into the 14th century. A local town coinage was also issued in the 17th and early 18th centuries. The city was annexed to Bavaria in 1802. MINTMASTER Hieronymous Hueber, 1716 ARMS Normally 2-fold, divided vertically, half of imperial eagle on left, cross on right.

MOMPELGART
(Mmpelgard, Mmpelgard, Montbliard) The Countship of Mmpelgart was located southwest of the Rhine, between the County of Burgundy and the Landgraviate of Upper Alsace. Its capital was the town of the same name situated near the confluence of the Allaine and Lisaine Rivers, 36 miles (60 kilometers) northeast of Besanon. When the last count of the old line died without a male heir, the territory and titles passed by way of his daughter Henriette through her marriage in 1408 to Count Eberhard IV of Wrttemberg (ruled 1417-19). Eberhards son, Ludwig I (1419-50), inherited Mmpelgart outright when his mother died in 1444. The Countship was ruled from this point by either the Counts (dukes from 1495) of Wrttemberg themselves or their brothers and cousins until a separate line was established in 1608. When that line became extinct in 1723, the titles and lands reverted to Wrttemberg. France annexed Mmpelgart in 1796 and all association with Wrttemberg ended.

MONTFORT
The countship of Montfort was located in the extreme southern part of Wrttemberg along the northern shore of the Bodensee (Lake Constance) and the area extending southeast of the lake known as the Vorarlberg. The castle of Montfort is situated next to the mint town of Langenargen on the Bodensee between Lindau and Friedrichshafen. The House of Montfort oriinated from the marriage of Hugo I, Count Palatine of Tbingen (116282) and Elizabeth, Countess and heir of Bregenz, Montfort and Sigmaringen. Their elder son, Rudolf I (1182-1230), took part of Bregenz and Montfort, thus establishing that line of counts. The sons of Hugo II divided their patrimony, founding separate lines of Montfort and Werdenberg. It was during the 13th century that the counts of Montfort began striking their first coins in the form of bracteats. The next generation again divided the lands into the branches of Montfort-Feldkirch, Montfort-Bregenz and MontfortTettnang. Feldkirch fell extinct in 1390 and passed to Austria. The Bregenz line only lasted until 1338 and was reunited to that of Tettnang. In 1353, the two sons of Wilhelm II founded the lines of Montfort-Neu-Bregenz and Montfort-Tettnang. Both branches struck coins, but the latter became extinct in 1574 and the lands and titles reverted to Bregenz, which then took the name of Montfort-Tettnang. Half of the territory of Montfort was sold to Austria in 1523. The last count sold the remainder to Austria in 1780.

MUHLHAUSEN THURINGEN
The city of Mhlhausen is located 20 miles (34km) north-northwest of Gotha and is one of the oldest towns in Thuringia (Thringen). Walls and fortifications were built during the reign of Emperor Heinrich I (918-36), who gave Mhlhausen a number of special privileges. An imperial mint was located there in the 12th and 13th centuries. After obtaining the right to mint its own coinage, Mhlhausen issued a long series dated from 1496-1767. Mhlhausen came under Prussian rule in 1802, then was dominated by Westphalia from 1807. It was returned to Prussia in 1815, by the terms of the peace which ended the Napoleonic Wars.

MUNSTER
St. Ludger founded the bishopric near the end of the 8th or the beginning of the 9th century in Westphalia. The town of Mnster, which means monastery, grew up around the ecclesiastical establishment (which see). The earliest anonymous coins of the bishopric date from the late 11th century and a long series of issues in the name of the bishops followed over the centuries. In 1802, Mnster was secularized and divided among several principalities. Those were soon mediatized and part of the territory went to Hannover. Mnster belonged to the Duchy of Berg from 1806 until 1810, then to France until 1814, when it was acquired by Prussia. During the 16th and 17th centuries treasury tokens, mostly counterstamped with the arms or initials of the current treasurer were issued. These were replaced in the middle of the 17th century by Cathedral coins, showing St. Paul with a sword. They last appeared at the end of the 18th century.

CATHEDRAL CHAPTER
The bursars or treasurers of the Cathedral Chapter of Mnster began issuing bursary tokens in the 16th century and then a series of regular coinage in the 17th and 18th centuries. Many of the tokens and coins were countermarked with the arms an/or initials of the canon who was the current treasurer of the chapter. The coins are often found with more than one countermark and they were revalidated by succeeding treasurers. The following are those known from the late 15th century, along with their particular arms used in the countermarks. Each is given a number by which the particular countermarks are identified.

NASSAU
The Countship of Nassau had its origins in the area of the Lahn of the central Rhineland, with territory on both sides of that river. The first count who attained the title with recognition from the emperor was Walram in 1158. His grandsons, Walram I (1255-88) and Otto I (1255-90), divided their patrimony. Walram claimed the left bank of the Lahn and made Weisbaden his principal seat, whereas Otto took the right bank and ruled from Siegen. Thus, the division of 1255 established the two main lines over the ensuing centuries. Several times, various branches of the family issued joint coinage, notably in the late 17th and again in the early 19th centuries. Eventually, through extinction of the various lines and the elevation of one ruler to the throne of the Netherlands, all Nassau was reunited under the house of Nassau-Weilburg.

The history of the city is one of continuous struggle with the bishops for recognition of its autonomy. It was an important member of the Hanseatic League in the 13th and 14th centuries. Figured as the center of the Anabaptist revolt of 1534-35. Bishop took the city as his seat in 1660 and deprived it of free status, yet local coinage was struck from the mid-16th-18th century.

NURNBERG
Nrnberg, (Nuremberg) in Franconia, was made a Free City in 1219. In that same year an Imperial mint was established there and continued throughout the rest of the century. The mint right was obtained in 1376 and again in 1422. City coins were struck from ca.1390 to 1806 when the city was made part of Bavaria. It was briefly occupied by Swedish forces until the death of Gustav II Adolfus in 1632.

The countship of Oldenburg was situated on the North Seacoast, to the east of the principality of East Friesland. It was originally part of the old duchy of Saxony and the first recorded lord ruled from the beginning of the 11th century. The first count was named in 1091 and had already acquired the countship of Delmenhorst prior to that time. The first identifiable Oldenburg coinage was struck in the first half of the 13th century. Oldenburg was divided into Oldenburg and Delmenhorst in 1270, but the two lines were reunited by marriage five generations later. Through another marriage to the heiress of the duchy of Schleswig and countship of Holstein, the royal house of Denmark descended through the Oldenburg line beginning in 1448, while a junior branch continued as counts of Oldenburg. The lordship of Jever was added to the county's domains in 1575. One of the sons of Johann V, Christoph, studied for the priesthood, but became involved in the War of the Counts against King Christian III of Denmark (1534-59). Christoph issued field campaign money, invoking the name of Christian IIIs deceased cousin, King Christian II (1513-23). In 1667, the last count died without a direct heir and Oldenburg reverted to Denmark until 1773. In the following year, Oldenburg was given to the bishop of Lbeck, of the HolsteinGottorp line, and raised to the status of a duchy. Oldenburg was occupied several times during the Napoleonic Wars and became a grand duchy in 1829. In 1817, Oldenburg acquired the principality of Birkenfeld from Prussia and struck coins in denominations used there. World War I spelled the end of temporal power for the grand duke in 1918, but the title has continued up to the present time. Grand Duke Anton Gnther was born in 1923.

CITY
The city of Osnabrck is located northeast of Mnster. Although the city owed its original growth to the bishopric, it achieved considerable independence from the bishops and joined the Hanseatic League. It had its own local coinage from the early 16th century until 1805. It was absorbed by Hannover in 1803.

OTTINGEN
The counts of ttingen, with lands in Swabia north of Nrdlingen, trace their descent in a long line back to the early 10th century. The counts obtained the right to coin money in 1393. During the Reformation, ttingen was divided into the Protestant ttingen-ttingen and the Catholic ttingen-Wallerstein lines of counts. ttingen-ttingen gained the rank of prince in 1674, but became extinct in 1731 and was divided between ttingenWallerstein-Spielberg and ttingen-Wallerstein-Wallerstein. In 1602 ttingen-Wallerstein was split into 3 lines: ttingen-Wallerstein-Spielberg (prince in 1734, mediatized in the early 19th century), ttingen-Wallerstein-Wallerstein (prince in 1774, mediatized in the early 19th century) and ttingen-WallersteinKatzenstein, which became extinct in 1798. Only 3 lines actually struck coins during the 16th to 19th centuries. Most coinages of ttingen in the 16th century were joint issues among the several branches of the counts.

PADERBORN
One of the principal cities of Westphalia and the seat of a bishopric from its founding by Charlemagne in 795, Paderborn is situated 23 miles (38 kilometers) south-southeast of Bielefeld and about 50 miles (80 kilometers) southeast of Mnster. The bishop received the right to strike coins in 1028 and was raised to the rank of Prince of the Empire in about 1100. By the late 12th to early 13th century, the bishops were employing nine different mints in their territories. In 1802, the bishopric was secularized and its domains, as well as the city of Paderborn, were annexed to Prussia. The former bishopric was part of the Kingdom of Westphalia from 1807 to 1813, after which it was returned to Prussia. In addition to the episcopal coinage, the cathedral chapter issued a series of coins in the early 17th century and during the several interregnal years. The town, and later city, of Paderborn grew up around the cathedral and became a member of the Hanseatic League, but failed to obtain the mint right. Eventually, the townspeople converted to Protestantism and found themselves in opposition to the Catholic bishop. The bishop prevailed and had a series of coins struck for the city in 1605. Paderborn also issued a local coinage during the early period of the Thirty Years War.

PASSAU
The Bishopric, in Bavaria, near the Austrian border, was established in 738. The bishops obtained the mint right prior to 999 but they originally struck coins jointly at the imperial mint in Passau. Ecclesiastical coinage began in the 12th century. In 1803, Passau was secularized and divided between Bavaria and Salzburg. In 1805 Bavaria absorbed the Salzburg portion.

PFALZ
(Rhenish Palatinate, Rheinpfalz) The Counts Palatine originally administered and exercised judicial functions over the imperial household of the Holy Roman Emperor, based at the center of Charlemagne's empire, Aachen. They gradually acquired territories in the middle Rhine. From1214 onwards the position was hereditary in the Wittelsbach family, who also controlled Bavaria. For a time the electoral dignity alternated between the Bavarian and Palatinate branches of the Wittelsbach family, until the Golden Bull in1356 settled it upon the Palatinate branch. When the Protestant nobles in Prague elected Friedrich V, who was also a Protestant, as King of Bohemia in 1618, it precipitated a conflict which became known as the Thirty Years War. Bohemia had been ruled by the Catholic Habsburg Emperors from Vienna since 1527 and Ferdinand II, was incensed at being rebuffed for the crown. Friedrich V lost his battles with Ferdinand IIs armies and had to flee to the Hague and to the protection of his father-in-law, King James I of England. He would forever after be known as The Winter King in ridicule of his short reign. As punishment, the electoral dignity was taken from the Pfalz branch of the Wittelsbachs and given to the rival branch, the Catholic Duke of Bavaria. As one of the general conditions set forth in the Peace of Westphalia in 1648-50, an eighth electorship was created for Pfalz and thus the dignity was restored to the family. The conversion of the electors to Roman Catholicism led to the expulsion of Huguenots and other Protestants from their territories, many of whom made their way to America, founding New Paltz, New York. In the course of the later seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the various branches of the Palatinate were left without any legitimate heirs, so that Karl The odor was able to combine the thrones of Jlich-Berg, the Palatinate, and Bavaria after the War of the Bavarian Succession.

end of the Thirty Years War in 1648 as part of the peace settlement. The royal coinage of Friedrich V for Bohemia is listed under that entity. From 1622 until 1648, the Upper Palatinate and part of the Rhenish Palatinate were administered by Bavaria, which struck coins for use in those territories. See Bavaria for listings of those issues. The Simmern line died out in 1685 and the office of elector fell to Pfalz-Neuburg, the rulers of which were also dukes of Jlich-Berg. The coinage issued of these PfalzNeuburg rulers are often confused one with the other and it is sometimes difficult to separate issues for Electoral Pfalz from those of Jlich-Berg, particularly because some issues for one principality were produced or at least the dies were made in the mint of the other territory. The fate of extinction befell the PfalzNeuburg line in 1742 and all its lands and titles passed to PfalzSulzbach for one generation. The Elector also became duke and elector in Bavaria when the Wittelsbach line in that principality became extinct and the two branches of the family were finally united after a breach of centuries. Once again the electoral dignity passed to another branch of the Palatine family, this time to Pfalz-Birkenfeld in 1799. With the abolition of the Holy Roman Empire by Napoleon in 1806, the electoral college was no longer needed and passed quietly away.

Karl Theodor was a great Maecenas, whose orchestra at Mannheim was one of the greatest in Europe. He was a patron of Mozart, who wrote Idomeneo for the opera house in Munich, and of the chemist Benjamin Thompson, later Count Rumford, who fled Massachusetts when the American Revolution broke out and sought refuge in Bavaria. The Palatinate was administered as part of Bavaria from1777, and did not mint any separate coins after 1802.The territories which composed the Palatinate were scattered over central Germany, and now form part of the West German states of Bavaria, Baden, Hesse, and Rheinland-Pfalz. The chief industry is bulk chemicals, from the great BASF factory at Ludwigshafen. In 1753 Bavaria and Austria concluded a monetary convention, reducing the fineness of the thaler to the point that 20 gulden could be coined from a Mark of fine silver. The most important result was that henceforth the gulden, rather than being worth 2/3 of a thaler, was henceforth worth half a thaler. This Convention standard was soon afterwards adopted by most of the states of southwest Germany, including the Palatinate. The Electors Palatine and the Saxon Elector acted as Vicars of the Empire after the death of a Holy Roman Emperor and before a new one was elected; the Elector Palatine in the areas of Franconian and Suevic law, the Saxon Elector in the areas where Saxon law applied. Both principalities issued coins commemorating the vicariates. Thus the Elector, Palatine Karl Theodor Actedas, Vicar of the Empire in 1790, after the death of Josef II, and again in 1792, after the early death of Leopold II, and issued coins in those two years. These coins are analogous to the Sede Vacante coins of ecclesiastical principalities.

ELECTORAL PFALZ (Rhenish Pfalz, Rheinpfalz, Churpfalz, Kurpfalz) Line of Succession in the Electoral Dignity Once the electorship was vested in the Palatine line of the Wittelsbachs, it passed by right of succession through the senior male line until the death of Friedrich II in 1556. His nephew Otto Heinrich then received the dignity, but this failed at his death three years later. The branch of the family with the highest seniority aft this time was that of Pfalz-Simmern and it was to it that the electoral office passed. The electorship was lost, as stated above, in 1623 as a result of Friedrich Vs actions and not restored until the

PRUSSIA
(Preussen) The Elector and Margrave of Brandenburg-Prussia, Friedrich III (1688-1713) offered his support to the Austrian Habsburgs during the War of the Spanish Succession. In exchange, Friedrich was permitted to assume the title King in Prussia in 1701 and ruled from that year as Friedrich I. Prussia built itself up as one of the major military powers of Europe during the 18 th century, despite its size and mostly rural population. Brandenburg-Prussia had been adroitly acquiring territories and significant increases in the number of inhabitants all during the 17 th century, especially in the technologically advanced Rhineland. Her far-flung territories gave Prussia a wide operating base and a large and steady income flowed into the state treasury. Friedrich II the Great (1740-1786) built upon his predecessors advances and began his reign by wresting much of Silesia away from Austria. Friedrich II was handed a setback during the Seven Years War (1756-1763) when Russia, under Tsarina Elisabeth I Petrovna, occupied the eastern Prussian territories from 1758 until 1762. A short-lived, but extensive series of coins were struck in Elisabeths name during those years. As a result of the second partitioning of Poland in 1793, Prussia received the region between East and West Prussia designated the province of South Prussia. A number of small denomination copper coins were struck for this territory for several years late in the 18th century. Prussia suffered greatly at the hands of Napoleon in the early 19th century, but was among the victorious allies who shared in the spoils of his defeats in 1814 and 1815. Prussia industrialized during the 19th century and added considerably to its territory after wars with Denmark and Austria in 1864 and 1866. The victory over France in the war of 1870-71 resulted in the annexation of Alsace and Lorraine, but even more importantly, it precipitated the creation of the German Empire, with Prussia leading the way. King Wilhelm I became Kaiser (Emperor) Wilhelm I of a united Germany. Defeat in World War I ended the empire and monarchy in Germany. Today, Prussia is not even part of the modern, unified country of Germany. NOTE: For coins of Neuchatel previously listed here, see Switzerland.

QUEDLINBURG
Pn9 1754A 6 1/24 Thaler.
The small provincial town of Quedlinburg, 8 miles (13 kilometers) south-southeast of Halberstadt and slightly north of the Harz Mountains, was founded in 922. The town itself had its own coinage during the middle of the 17th century, but most of the local coinage was produced in and for the abbey. Near the village in 966, Emperor Otto I the Great (962-73) founded an abbey primarily for princesses of his imperial Saxon family. Otto Is grandson, Otto III (983-1002), established an imperial mint in the town and gave the abbesses the right to strike their own coinage at about the same time. Many of the abbesses were members of the House of Saxony or from noble families closely associated with it. When the Electorate and Duchy of Saxony itself became officially Protestant during the Reformation, Quedlinburg followed the same path in 1539. The coinage of the abbesses came to an end in 1697 when Elector Friedrich August I of Saxony (16941733) sold his rights over Quedlinburg to Brandenburg-Prussia in order to become King of Poland. A brief and scarce issue of a few types occurred in 1759, but otherwise the abbesses had only tier 40-square mile (65-square kilometer) territory to administer. Even this was secularized and annexed by Prussia in 1803. RULERS Anna Dorothea von Sachsen-Weimar, 1684-1704 Maria Elisabeth von Holstein-Gottorp, 1710-55 Anna Amalia von Preussen, 1755-87 Sophia Albertina von Schweden, 1787-1808, died 1829 MINT OFFICIALS INITIALS Initials Date Name HCH 1689-1729 Heinrich Christoph Hille, mintmaster in Braunschweig ARMS Two crossed fish, but also sometimes an eagle or a three-towered city gate, or a combination of these. Electoral and Ducal Saxony arms often appear on coins of abbesses from that family.

RAVENSBURG
(Ravenspurg) Not to be confused with Ravensberg in Westphalia, Ravensburg is located some 13 miles (22 kilometers) north of Lake Constance in lower Swabia. The earliest structures of the city fortifications date from about 750. The city takes its name from the old German personal name Ravan, that is Rabe in modern German, meaning raven or crow, but who this actually refers to is lost to history. By the middle of the 11th century, Ravensburg was a growing town and received the right to hold markets early in the 12th century. Although Ravensburg is mentioned as the site of an imperial mint in the 12th century, then as a mint for the bishops of Constance early in the next century, it did not receive the mint right for municipal coinage until the 14th century. The first city coinages known date from the later 1300s. Ravensburg had been elevated to the rank of an imperial city in 1276. From the inception of its coinage until the early 18 th century, Ravensburg produced intermittent issue of coins. The city also had a short-lived joint coinage with Ulm and berlingen in the early 16th century (see the latter for these). During the Napoleonic Wars, Ravensburg was annexed by Bavaria in 1803 and transferred to Wrttemberg in 1810. ARMS City gate with two crenelated towers.
BISHOPRIC
The town of Regensburg, located on the Danube River in Bavaria about 35 miles (57km) northeast of Ingolstadt, became the seat of a bishopric in 470. The first coins of the bishops were joint issues with the dukes of Bavaria from the mid-10th century. In the 11th century, independent episcopal coinage made its appearance. Most of the bishops were members of the local Bavarian nobility. Karl Theodor von Dalberg, the last one with territorial control transferred those lands to Bavaria in 1810, having been raised to the rank of archbishop in 1805. He was given Frankfurt am Main in exchange by Napoleon, who made him a grand duke as well. When Napoleon lost his empire, the bishop was left with only his ecclesiastic title as archbishop of Regensburg.

FREE CITY
The site of Regensburg was settled before the arrival of the Romans, who called the place Ratisbona. After the establishment of a bishopric there in the 5th century, the town was also the chief residence of the early dukes of Bavaria. From the 10 th century through the early 13th century, Regensburg contained a mint which produced coins for the dukes and bishops. Regensburg was elevated to a free imperial city in 1180 and obtained the mint right in 1230. A long series of issues dating from 1508 and continuing into the early 19th century ensued. Regensburg was the site of the Imperial Diet (Reichstag) or Parliament, which met continuously in the Reichssaal of the city hall from 1663 until 1806, when Napoleon dissolved the Holy Roman Empire. The opening of each years session, attended by the emperor in person, all the secular princes and ecclesiastic rulers of the empire, was a source of great pride and prestige for the city. However, Regensburg lost its independence and was handed over to the bishop in 1803. It came into the possession of Bavaria, along with the bishopric, in 1810.

REUSS
The Reuss family, whose lands were located in Thuringia, was founded c. 1035. By the end of the 12th century, the custom of naming all males in the ruling house Heinrich had been established. The Elder Line modified this strange practice in the late 17th century to numbering all males from 1 to 100, then beginning over again. The Younger Line, meanwhile, decided to start the numbering of Heinrichs with the first male born in each century. Greiz was founded in1303. Upper and Lower Greiz lines were founded in 1535 and the territories were divided until 1768. In 1778 the ruler was made a prince of the Holy Roman Empire. The principality endured until 1918.

REUSS-SCHLEIZ
Originally part of the holdings of Reuss-Gera, Schleiz was ruled separately on and off during the first half of the 16th century. When the Gera line died out in 1550, Schleiz passed to Obergreiz. Schleiz was reintegrated into a new line of Gera and a separate countship at Schleiz was founded in 1635, only to last one generation. At its extinction in 1666, Schleiz passed to Reuss-Saalburg which thereafter took the name of Reuss-Schleiz.

REUSS-UNTERGREIZ
Founded in 1535, inherited Burgk in 1550. After several acquisitions and subsequent divisions, the line died out in 1768 and all holdings passed to Reuss-Obergreiz. RULERS Heinrich XIII, 1675-1733 Heinrich III, 1733-1768

RIETBERG
The counts of Rietberg held lands along the River Ems in Westphalia. Rietberg castle and town are located on the river about 15 miles (25 km) west-northwest of Paderborn. The line of Rietberg counts was established by Heinrich II (1185-1207), the younger brother of Count Gottfried II of Arnsberg (1185-1235). The line in Rietberg had the misfortune to become extinct in the male line more than once. When Konrad IV died in 1439, he was succeeded by his grandson through his daughter. In the mid-16th century, Johann II left only two daughters. Irmgard married first Erich von Hoya, second Simon von Lippe, who ruled Rietberg briefly after his wife died in 1583. Meanwhile, Walburg had married Enno III von Ostfriesland and their daughter Sabina Katharina eventually married her uncle, Johann III von Ostfriesland. Johann III ruled Rietberg and their son was the first of a new line of counts there. When that line became extinct as well in 1690, Rietberg passed in marriage to the counts of Kaunitz. The countship was raised to a principality in 1764 and was mediatized in 1807, passing to Westphalia thereafter. RULERS Maria Ernestine Franziska, 1690-1758 Maximilian Ulrich von Kaunitz, 1699-1746 Wenzel Anton, 1746-1794, Prince 1764 Ernst Christof II, 1794-1797 Dominikus Anon, 1797-1807 (d. 1812) ARMS Rietberg displayed eagle Esens (lordship) bear standing on hind legs Wittmund (lordship) two crossed whips Ostfriesland crowned harpy REFERENCE B = W.

ROSTOCK
The town of Rostock is first mentioned in 1030 and was the seat of a lordship of the same name in the 13th century. It is located just a few miles inland from where the Warnow River enters the Baltic Sea and was an important trading center from earliest times. Although Rostock was usually under some control by the Mecklenburg dukes, it functioned somewhat as a free city, gaining a municipal charter as early as 1218. The city obtained control of its own coinage in 1323 and received the mint right unconditionally in 1361. From 1381, Rostock was a member of the Wendischen Mnzverein (Wendish Monetary Union) and joined the Hanseatic League not long afterwards. The city coinage was struck from the 14th century until 1864.

ROTHENBURG
A city located in Bavaria on the Tauber River southeast of Wurzburg. Population: 11,882. Exports include soap and textiles. Nobles of Rothenburg, whose castle lay in the Harz Mountains, were the cadet line of the counts of Beichlingen. Founded by Friedrich IV (1252-1313) the city became an imperial city in 1274 and reached the height of its prosperity at the end of the 14th century.
SAINT ALBAN
The priory of Saint Alban is located some 27 miles (45 kilometers southwest of Mainz and was controlled by the archbishops of that city. Emperor Maximilian I granted the priors the right to mint coins in 1518, but that right seems only to have been exercised twice in the 16th century and again during the 18th century.

SALM
The earliest rulers of this county, with widely scattered territories in the border region of present-day Germany, France and Belgium, descended from the counts of Luxembourg in the second half of the 11th century. The patrimony was divided between two succeeding sons about 1130-35. Lower Salm was located in the Ardenne region of France and became extinct in 1416 with the death of Heinrich VI. It passed by marriage to the lord of Reifferscheidt who in turn established the line of Salm-Reifferscheidt in 1455. The other division of old Salm was Upper Salm and was located in the Vosges to the southwest of Strassburg. This line underwent several divisions, one of which died out and passed to Lorraine in 1503. Another branch subdivided and half passed to as on who left the area and established himself as progenitor of the Salm-Neuburg line in Austria. The remaining half of Salm went to the older son and was inherited through marriage upon his death in 1475 by a ruler styled Wild and Rhinegrave. This latter individual was well-established in lands which stretched along the Rhine between Trier and Mainz. Thus, the early modern lines of Salm and its subdivisions in Germany came into being. The old castle of Salm, seat of the earliest counts, is located southwest of Strassburg, but the dynastic name was transferred to the Rhineland counts, who became from that point on, the Wild- and Rhinegraves of Salm. Two main lines were founded in 1499.

SALM-GRUMBACH
Located just to the west of Lauterecken on the River Glan and 11 miles (19 kilometers) south of Dhaun, Grumbach was one result of the 1561 division of Salm-Dhaun. A branch line was founded in 1668 at Rheingrafenstein (Grehweiler), but it became extinct in the early 19th century. Descendants of the Salm-Grumbach line continued well into the 20th century, although the lands were mediatized in 1806.

SAXONY-ALBERTINE
(Sachsen-Albertinische Linie) The younger of the two branches of the Billung dynasty, which ruled in Upper Saxony and Meissen, this line founded by Friedrich IIs son, Albrecht, in 1485, first ruled in Meissen as dukes of Saxony. As a result of the conflict between Johann Friedrich I and Emperor Karl V (see Ernestine Line), the Albertine Line acquired the electoral dignity in 1547. The elector also became King of Poland in 1696 and permanently in 1709. As a result of the Napoleonic Wars (1792-1815), the elector was made King of Saxony in 1806, but lost half his territory to Prussia in 1813. The last king was forced to abdicate at the end of World War I.

SALM-KYRBURG
Founded in 1499, this branch took its name from Kyrburg Castle, the ruins of which are located three miles (5 km) west-southwest of Dhaun. A further subdivision was made in 1607, resulting in the lines of Salm-Kyrburg, Salm-Morchingen and Salm-Tronecken, the latter lasting only one generation. The main line became extinct in 1681and fell to S-Mrchingen, which in turn ended in the male line in 1688. All Salm-Kyrburg lands and titles then reverted to SalmSalm. After several subdivisions of that senior branch, a new line of Salm-Kyrburg was established from Salm-Neuweiler-Lenze in 1738. The count was raised to the rank of Prince of the Empire in 1742. All territories of the family were mediatized in 1806, but the Salm-Kyrburg line has survived down to modern times.

SAXONY
(Sachsen) From about the time of Charlemagne, the term Saxony covered most of what is the northwestern part of modern day Germany. It roughly covered the area between the River Ems, the North Sea, the Eider and Elbe Rivers, extending to the southern slopes of the Harz Mountains, bordering Franconia, but not as far as the Rhine. The early Saxon tribes were pagans who, upon conquest by the Franks, became the nucleus of a buffer state between that empire and the heathen Slav peoples to the east. The first Margrave of Saxony was Ludolf, named in 850 to defend the frontier, and recognized as founder of the Liudolfinger dynasty. His grandson acquired Thuringia (Thringen) in 908 and was raised to the rank of duke in 911. The dynasty furnished the Saxon line of German kings and emperors beginning with Heinrich I the Fowler in 919 and up to Heinrich II, who died in 1024. A relative of the dynasty was delegated to rule Saxony and founded the Billung dynasty of dukes in 961. In 1260, Saxony was divided into Saxe-Lauenburg (Northern or Lower Saxony, which see) and Saxe-Wittenberg, also known as Upper Saxony, the southern part of the territory ruled by the Billungers.

(Sachsen-Neu-Weimar) Founded from Saxe-Middle-Weimar in 1640, the division ended the joint rule of the duchy begun by all eight sons of Johann III. In 1662, the four sons of Wilhelm IV divided their inheritance into the lines of Saxe-(New)-Weimar, Saxe-Eisenach, SaxeMarksuhl and Saxe-Jena. When the line in Eisenach became extinct in 1741, that territory and titles reverted to Weimar, which became known from that time on as Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach RULERS Wilhelm Ernst, 1683-1728 Johann Ernst III (VI), 1683-1707 Ernst August I, 1728-1741 (d.1748) MINT OFFICIALS INITIALS Initial Date Name BA 1687-91-1702 Bastian Altmann, mintmaster in Weimar CW, W 1688-1739 Christian Wermuth, die-cutter in Gotha ca. 1717 Jeremias Balthasar Wilhelmi, diecutter in Ilmenau REFERENCE K = Lothar Koppe, Die Mnzen des Hauses Sachsen-Weimar, 1573 bis 1918, Regenstauf, 2007.

SAXE-EISENACH
(Sachsen-Eisenach) One of the Ernestine Saxon duchies in Thuringia (Thringen), Saxe-Eisenach was first ruled separately by one of eight brothers beginning in 1640. It reverted back to Saxe-MiddleWeimar in 1644, but a new line was established by the second son of Duke Wilhelm IV as Saxe-(New)-Weimar in 1622. This second line became extinct very shortly thereafter and Eisenach passed to Wilhelm IV's third son in 1671. Sayn-Altenkirchen (q.v.) was added to the duke's possessions through marriage in 1686. Again, the line passed out of existence and Eisenach was returned to Saxe-Weimar in 1741. See Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach for subsequent coinages.

SAXE-WEIMAR-EISENACH
Unc (Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach) When the death of the duke of Saxe-Eisenach in 1741 heralded the extinction of that line, its possessions reverted to SaxeWeimar, which henceforth was known as Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach. Because of the strong role played by the duke during the Napoleonic Wars, Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach was raised to the rank of a grand duchy in 1814 and granted the territory of Neustadt, taken from Saxony. The last grand duke abdicated at the end of World War I.

SAXE-GOTHA-ALTENBURG
(Sachsen-Gotha-Altenburg) When the seven sons of Ernst the Pious of Saxe-New-Gotha divided the lands of their father in 1680, the eldest established the line of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg. The line became extinct in 1825 and the following year witnessed the division of the territory which resulted in a general reorganization of the Thuringian duchies. Altenburg itself was inherited by the duke of Saxe-Hildburghausen, who transferred Hildburghausen to Saxe-Meiningen and became the founder of a new line of Saxe-Altenburg. Saxe-Meiningen also received Saalfeld from Saxe-Coburg, which in turn had acquired Gotha as part of the proceedings. The line of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha was established as a result. See under each of the foregoing regarding developments after the realignment of 1826. For a short period of time, from 1688 to 1692, the duke leased the abbey of Walkenried from BrunswickWolfenbttel and struck a series of coins for that district.

SAXE-MEININGEN
(Sachsen-Meiningen) The duchy of Saxe-Meiningen was located in Thuringia, sandwiched between Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach on the west and north and the enclave of Schmalkalden belonging to Hesse-Cassel on the east. It was founded upon the division of the Ernestine line in Saxe-Gotha in 1680. In 1735, due to an exchange of some territory, the duchy became known as Saxe-Coburg-Meiningen. In 1826, Saxe-Coburg-Gotha assigned Saalfeld to Saxe-Meiningen. The duchy came under the strong influence of Prussia from 1866, when Bernhard II was forced to abdicate because of his support of Austria. The monarchy ended with the defeat of Germany in 1918.

SAXE-COBURG-SAALFELD
(Sachsen-Coburg-Saalfeld) When Saxe-Saalfeld obtained Coburg in 1735, the duchy was henceforth called Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld. In 1826, Saalfeld was transferred to Saxe-Meiningen and the Ernst I received Gotha in exchange. The new creation was then known as SaxeCoburg-Gotha.

Founded at the end of the Thirty Years War by the elder daughter of Ernst (1623-32) upon her marriage to Salentin Ernest von Manderscheid. Sayn-Hachenberg passed in marriage in 1694 to the burgraves of Kirchberg who ruled the countship until 1799. It then passed to Nassau-Weilburg from 1799 to 1803 and then reverted to Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg after mediatization. Kirchberg itself was located near Jena in Thringen.

SAYN
COUNTSHIP The counts of Sayn trace their beginnings to the elder son of Emmerich, Count of Dietz (ca. 1073-1139). The first of his line, Eberhard I (1139-76) centered his domains on the castle of Sayn, north of and across the Rhine several miles from Coblenz. The counts controlled lands in the Westerwald to the north and northwest of their castle. A number of significant acquisitions of lands and titles took place through marriage during the late 13th and 14th centuries. The branch of Homburg-Vallendar acquired the countship of Wittgenstein about the middle of the 14th century, then the last of the old main line of Sayn-Sayn, Anna Elisabeth, married a son of the Sayn-Wittgenstein branch in 1608. That branch had already been subdivided in 1605 into Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn, Sayn-Wittgenstein-Wittgenstein-Berleburg. MINT OFFICIALS

SCHAUMBURG-HESSEN
Located in northwest Germany, Schaumburg-Hessen was founded in 1640 when Schaumburg-Gehmen was divided between Hesse-Cassel and Lippe-Alverdissen. The acquired territories were renamed Schaumburg-Hessen and Schaumburg-Lippe respectively. Cassel struck coins for SchaumburgHessen well into the 19th century. By agreement between the rulers of the two divisions of Schaumburg, who themselves were related by marriage, many of the issues struck by the landgraves of Hesse-Cassel were for use in both Schaumburg-Hessen and Schaumburg-Lippe. RULERS Karl (of Hesse-Cassel), 1670-1730 Friedrich I (of Hesse-Cassel), 1730-1751 Wilhelm VIII (of Hesse-Cassel), 1751-1760 Friedrich II (of Hesse-Cassel), 1760-1785 Wilhelm IX (of Hesse-Cassel), 1785-1821 Initials FU BR F, DF Date 1764-73 1765-83 1774-1831 Name Friedrich Ulrich, mintmaster Cassel Balthasar Reinhard, mintmaster Cassel Dietrich Fulda, mintmaster Cassel

SCHAUMBURG-LIPPE
The tiny countship of Schaumburg-Lippe, with an area of only 131 square miles (218 square kilometers) in northwest Germany, was surrounded by the larger states of Brunswick-Lneburg-Calenberg, an enclave of Hesse-Cassel, and the bishopric of Minden (part of Brandenburg-Prussia from 1648). It was founded in 1640 when Schaumburg-Gehmen was divided between Hesse-Cassel and Lippe-Alverdissen. The two became known as Schaumburg-Hessen and Schaumburg-Lippe. Philipp II, the youngest son of Count Simon VI of Lippe came into the possession of Alverdissen and Lipperode upon his fathers death in 1613. In 1640, he also inherited half of Schaumburg-Bckeburg, becoming the first Count of Schaumburg-Lippe. A separate line of Schaumburg-Alverdissen was established in 1681 and, upon the extinction of the elder line in 1777, the lands and titles devolved onto Alverdissen, becoming the ruling line in the countship. In 1807, the count was raised to the rank of prince and Schaumburg-Lippe was incorporated into the Rhine Confederation. It became a part of the German Confederation in 1815

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN
Christian I, son of Count Dietrich of Oldenburg (1423-40), was elected King of Denmark in 1448. By virtue of his marriage to Hedwig, the last surviving heir of the countship of HolsteinRendsburg (see Holstein), Christian I became Duke of Schleswig and Count of Holstein in 1459. His status over Holstein was raised to that of duke in 1474 and from that year onwards, the dual duchies of Schleswig-Holstein were ruled by the Danish royal house. In 1533, a separate line for one of Friedrich Is sons was established in Gottorp. Similarly, a son of Christian III was given Sonderburg as his domain in 1559. The Danish kings continued to have coins struck for their remaining portions of SchleswigHolstein during the next several centuries. Upon the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire by Napoleon in 1806, Holstein was made a part of Denmark. However, Holstein, without Schleswig, joined the German Confederation following the final defeat of Napoleon in 1815. After Denmark tried to annex Schleswig and Holstein in 1846, she fought a war with Prussia for three years over control of the duchies, but it was inconclusive. In 1863, Denmark declared that Schleswig was part of that country although it had a German majority in the population. A second war was fought between Denmark against Prussia and Austria and Schleswig-Holstein was occupied by the victorious Prussians. The administration of Holstein was given to Austria, while that of Schleswig was obtained by Prussia in 1865. However, Austria was forced to give up Holstein after losing a war with Prussia in 1866. Schleswig-Holstein were controlled by Prussia and became part of the German Empire in 1871. Following World War I, a plebiscite was held in Schleswig and the northern part, with its majority Danish population, was ceded to Denmark in 1920.

SCHLESWIGHOLSTEIN-GOTTORP
The line of Gottorp was established in 1533 as a territorial domain for the youngest son of Friedrich I, King of Denmark and Duke of Schleswig-Holstein. Many members of this line and a cadet line founded in 1702 became bishops of Lbeck (see). Duke Karl Peter Ulrich, whose father, Karl Friedrich, had married Anna of Russia, became Czar Peter III in 1762, but was killed shortly after his accession to the throne. His son, Paul, traded Gottorp to Denmark for Oldenburg in 1773 (see Oldenburg) and ruled Russia as Czar Paul I (1798-1901).

The latter fell extinct in the mid14th century and passed to Arnstadt. Generations later, the lines of Schwarzburg-Sondershausen and Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt were founded and Arnstadt was absorbed by the former, only to reemerge as a separate line in 1642.

SCHONAU
The lordship of Schnau was centered on the Lower Rhine north of Aachen. It was ruled from the mid-15th century for several hundred years by the lords of Milendonck, themselves having originated in the mid-12th century. When the male line died out, the titles continued through marriage in the late 13th century into the line of Reifferscheidt-Malberg. After the male line again fell extinct in 1674, a surviving sister transferred ownership to the Lord of Blanche. The son of the latter struck a short-lived illegal minor coinage which was banned by the city council of Aachen in 1756. Schnau was mediatized to Jlich-Berg in 1758 and eventually sold to the Lords of Broich near the end of the 18th century. RULER Johann Gottfried, von Blanche, 1721-1758

SCHWARZBURGRUDOLSTADT
Established upon the division of SchwarzburgSondershausen in 1552, the younger main branch of Schwarzburg, centered on the castle and town of Rudolstadt, 17 miles (29 kilometers) south of Weimar, flourished until the end of World War I. The count was raised to the rank of prince in 1711. The three sons of Albrecht VII, the first Count of SchwarzburgRudolstadt, ruled and issued coinage jointly, followed by a long succession of sole rulers descended from the middle son, Ludwig Gnther I.

SCHWARZBURG
The countship of Schwarzburg had its beginnings in central Thuringia (Thringen) and the ruling family eventually held numerous small territories from northern to central Thuringia. The earliest rulers known with any historical certainty were counts of Kfernburg in the 12th century. The line was divided into Kfernburg and Schwarzburg in the early 13th century, but when that of Kfernburg became extinct in 1385, most of its territories reverted to Schwarzburg. Several divisions of the countship took place during the next several centuries and at the beginning of the 16th century, there existed the branches of Schwarzburg-Arnstadt, Schwarzburg-Blankenburg and Schwarzburg-Leutenberg. The rulers of the various lines usually struck a joint coinage during the 16th century, but some of the counts issued coins in their own right as well. In 1526, the lines of Schwarzburg-Frankenhausen and Schwarzburg-Sondershausen were established from Schwarzburg-Blankenburg. Frankenhausen only lasted for one generation, but Schwarzburg-Sondershausen was further divided into Schwarzburg-Arnstadt, Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt and Schwarzburg-Sondershausen in 1552 (see separate listings for each of these). The Arnstadt line also failed after a single generation, but was reestablished as a branch of SchwarzburgSondershausen in 1642. ARMS Schwarzburg (1) early arms, a crowned lion, often to right (2) the symbols of a two-tined fork and a comb are often found as part of the arms, usually at the bottom of the main body of the arms (3) the imperial eagle with arms on breast were adopted by all branches of the family who became princes of the empire in the late 17th and early 18th centuries Arnstadt eagle Hohnstein checkerboard Klettenberg striding deer Lutterberg crowned striding lion above four horizontal bars Sondershausen deer antlers

SCHWARZENBERG
The princes of Schwarzenberg based their land holdings in Franconia after Erkinger I of Stefansberg bought the lordship of Schwarzenberg sometime between 1405 and 1411. He became a member of the Imperial Diet in 1429 and upon his death in 1437, his two sons founded the lines of Schwarzenberg-Stefansberg and Schwarzenberg-Hohenlandsberg. The younger line, which was raised to the rank of count in 1566, became extinct in 1646. Its lands and titles reverted to Stefansberg, which attained the countship in 1599. In 1670, the count of Schwarzenberg was made a prince and, a generation later, the territories of Sulz and Kettgau were added to the family holdings through marriage, followed by Krumau in 1719. Having acquired Gimborn earlier, the prince sold that county to Wallmoden in 1783. Klettgau was sold to Baden in 1813, but not before the principality in Franconia was mediatized to Bavaria when the Holy Roman Empire came to an end in 1806. Members of the family retained their titles and held extensive lands in Bavaria, Austria and Bohemia/Czechoslovakia well into the 20th century. Several princes von Schwarzenberg distinguished themselves in both civil and military service to Austria. RULERS Schwarzenberg-Stefansberg Ferdinand Wilhelm Eusebius, 1683-1703 Adam Franz Karl, 1703-1732, Duke of Krumau from 1723 Joseph Adam, 1732-1782 Johann, 1782-1789 Joseph Johann Nepomuk, 1789-(1806)-1833 MINT OFFICIALS INITIALS

Schweinfurt was a Free City located in Lower Franconia some 27 miles northeast of Wrzburg. It was first mentioned in 790, became a Free City in the 13th century. Immediately after becoming free, Schweinfurt was the site of a short-lived royal bracteat mint. The only Schweinfurt local coinage appeared in 1622, though a 1717 series of Reformation commemoratives may have passed as coins. In 1803 the town was annexed to Bavaria.

SILESIA
The territory of Silesia was historically located between Bohemia and Poland, but was Germanic in character from an early period. The first ruling dynasty, that of the Piasts, was descended from the Polish royal line and soon had divided Silesia into a number of smaller entities. Silesia proper became a part of the Holy Roman Empire in the 14th century and came under the influence of Bohemia, which began striking coins for that territory. After the mid-14th century, Breslau (see) became the capital and the principal mint of the duchy. In 1526, Silesia, along with Bohemia, came into the possession of the Habsburg imperial family. The Austrian-style coinage of Silesia was struck from that time until 1740, with few gaps, most notably during the Thirty Years War, when the estates struck a series of emergency coinage. All during the period of Habsburg domination, the various semi-independent small duchies, in all their branches, continued to strike their own coins. The bishops of Breslau and a number of towns and cities also issued coinages in their own names (see under Breslau and the town names). In the 1740s, Prussia conquered the greater portion of Silesia and established a mint in Breslau which struck coins within the Prussian system from 1743 until 1797 (see under Prussia). Silesia remained a province of Prussia throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, only to be divided and partly awarded to Poland after World War I. Following the Second World War, the rest of Silesia was united with Poland and remains as part of that country up to the present day.

SOEST
Soest is a town in Westphalia, 27 miles (46 km) east of Dortmund. It was important in trade and as an imperial mint from at least the 11th-12th centuries. After Westphalia, for the most part, came under the control of the archbishops of Cologne and Soest grew in its role as a member of the Hanseatic League, the two came into increasing conflict. By the mid-15th century, Soest sought protection from the duke of Cleves. The town produced its own coinage in the late 15th century and then from the second half of the 16th until the mid-18th centuries. Prussia annexed Soest in 1813.

SOLMS-LAUBACH
Founded by a younger son of Philipp I of Solms-Lichand Hohensolms prior to 1522 and seated at the town of Laubach some 14 miles (23 km) east-southeast of Giessen, this branch lasted until at least the 20th century. The first division in 1561 resulted in the two lines of Solms-Laubach and Solms-Sonnenwalde. The next division occurred when Solms-Laubach, Solms-Baruth, Solms-Sonnenwalde and Solms-Rodelheim were established in 1600. The first Solms-Laubach died out in 1676 and titles passed to Solms-Wildenfels, from which a second line was constituted in 1696. As was the case with all other branches of Solms, Laubach was mediatized around 1806.

SOLMS
The earliest count of Solms whose name has come down to us was Marquard I (1129-1141). Although the original center of power may have been any one of three places, the most likely location is Burg-Solms, also known by the old name of Hohensolms. Burgsolms is located on the Lahr River about 5 miles (8 km) west of Wetzlar and 7 miles (11 km) northeast of Weilburg in the Sauerland, north of Frankfurt am Main. This region became the center of mining and smelting in medieval Germany an indication of Solms' large silver coin-issuing capability, all out of proportion to its size. Over time, the counts acquired scattered holdings near Frankfurt, in Saxony and in Bohemia. The county underwent numerous divisions from the late Middle Ages well into the 19th century. The first division occurred in 1409, when the lines of Solms-Braunfels and Solms-Lich were founded. All branches of Solms received the mint right from Emperor Karl V in 1552, but not all lines issued coins.

SOLMS-BRAUNFELS
Established in the first division of Solms in 1409, SolmsBraunfels was further divided in 1592 into Solms-Braunfels, Solms-Greiffenstein and Solms-Hungen. Braunfels is located just 1.5 miles (3 km) south of Burgsolms (Hohensolms). Greiffenstein is a small village 7 miles (12 km) northwest of Burgsolms, whereas Hungen is further away, being 12.5 miles (21 km) southeast of Giessen or 22 miles (36 km) east-southeast of Burgsolms. The direct line of Solms-Braunfels became extinct in 1693 and passed to Greiffenstein, which was known as Braunfels from that date onwards. The count was raised to the dignity of prince in 1742. The lands were mediatized about 1806, but the counts of Solms-Braunfels descended into the present age.

Date Mintage VG F VF XF Unc 1770 AS 75.00 150 300 600 The castle of Stolberg, located on the southern slopes of the Harz Mountains, 9 miles (15 km) northeast of Nordhausen, is the ancestral home of the counts of that name. The dynasty has a recognized line of succession from count Heinrich I (1210-1239), but the family claimed descent from Otto Colonna, an Italian noble of the 6th century. The column in the family arms signifies this supposed connection, whether historically accurate or not. Count Heinrich was the younger brother of the count of Hohnstein whose castle lay just 6 miles away. Whatever the origin of the earlier counts of Stolberg, they came to an end and the line founded by Heinrich I began in about 1222. The long series of coins, based on the rich Harz silver mine holdings of the family, began at this time. Various territories, some scattered a distance from the family home, were added to the Stolberg lands and two brothers established separate lines in 1538, Stolberg-Stolberg and Stolberg-Wernigerode. Another brother succeeded to the Dietz portion of Knigstein in 1574. MINT OFFICIALS INITIALS The output of the Harz silver mines belonging to the counts of Stolberg was often beyond the capacity of their several mints to turn into coins. Production of many coins frequently farmed out to mints in other territories, such as neighboring Mansfeld, or to city mints in Frankfurt am Main, Augsburg, etc. Sometimes mintmasters and die engravers were invited to work in Stolberg mints on a temporary basis. Over the centuries a bewildering number of people worked in and for Stolberg mints and many left their symbols and initials on the coins.

STOLBERG-ROSSLA
The small village of Rossla is situated on the main east-west road between Nordhausen and Sangerhausen, 9 miles (15 km) southeast of Stolberg castle. It became the seat of a cadet line of the junior branch of the dynasty upon the division of Stolberg in 1704. Although Stolberg-Rossla issued a few coins in the name of the individual counts, most of its extensive coinage during the 18th century was coined jointly with the rulers of Stolberg-Stolberg, under which the issues are listed. Although the Stolberg counts surrendered their sovereignty regarding military and foreign matters to Prussia during the latter half of the 18th century, the Stolberg-Rossla line continued well into the 20th century.

STOLBERGWERNIGERODE
The castle of Wernigerode is situated across the Harz Mountains to the north of Stolberg castle, some 12 miles (20 km) westsouthwest of Halberstadt. An early division of the old Stolberg line in 1538 resulted in a separate line in Wernigerode. A second division in 1572 established Stolberg-Ortenberg and StolbergSchwarza (Wernigerode) and the latter was divided further into 1876 divided further into the senior branch of Stolberg-Wernigerode and the junior branch of Stolberg-Stolberg.Once again, Stolberg-Wernigerode was the foundation of three separate lines at Gedern, Schwarza and Wernigerode in 1710. The first two fell extinct within a century, but Stolberg-Wernigerode lasted into the 20th century. RULERS Ernst von Stolberg-Wernigerode-Ilsenburg, 1672-1710 and Ludwig Christian, 1672-1710 Christian Ernst I, 1710-1771 Heinrich Ernst II, 1771-1778 Christian Friedrich, 1778-1824

STRASSBURG
The capital and principal city of Alsace, Strassburg is located very near the Rhine, 55 miles (92 km) southeast of Saarbrucken. It was an early Celtic settlement, then the Roman town of Argentoratum, from which is derived its name as found on many of Strassburg's coins. The first mention of a bishopric existing in the place dates from the 6th century. The city was both home to the bishops and the site of an imperial mint, the latter which functioned from the 9th to the 11th centuries. The bishops had received the right to coin their own money in 873, but it was not until Strassburg was made a free imperial city in the early 13th century that the townspeople came into conflict with them. When bishop Walter von Hohengeroldseck (1260-1263) tried to reassert authority over the town, the populace rose up and soundly defeated him at the Battle of Oberhausbergen in 1262. The power of the bishopric never recovered, then the city grew in importance and Strassburg city received the mint right in 1334, even though coins were struck in its name locally beginning in 1296.Strassburg's coinage continued until beyond the annexation of the city in 1681, whereas issues by the bishops continued until 1773. The bishopric was finally secularized and annexed by France in 1789. RULERS Wilhelm Egon, Frst von Frstenberg, 1682-1704 Armand Gaston, Frst von Rohan-Soubise, 1704-1749, cardinal 1712 Armand, Frst von Rohan-Soubise, 1749-1756 Ludwig Constantin, Frst von Rohan-Guemen, 1756-1779 Ludwig Renatus, Frst von Rohan-Guemen, 1779-1803 ARMS Strassburg - diagonal bar from upper left to lower right, often a fleur-de-lis appears on city coinage as well. Alsace - similar diagonal bar with 6 crowns, 3 on each side along bar. Lorraine - similar diagonal bar with 3 small eagles within it.

STRALSUND
The town of Stralsund, founded about the year 1200 on the mainland opposite the island of Rgen in the Baltic Sea, obtained the rights of a Germanic city in 1234. Stralsund later joined the Hanseatic League and remained strong enough to maintain its independence from the dukes of Pomerania, who struck coins in that place during the 13 th century. In 1325, the city purchased the right to coin its own money from the duke and began a series which continued until 1763. The city fell under the rule of Sweden from 1637 until 1815, then passed to Prussia along with the rest of Swedish Pomerania.

TEUTONIC ORDER
Deutscher Orden The Order of Knights was founded during the Third Crusade in 1198. They acquired considerable territory by conquest from the heathen Prussians in the late 13th and early 14th centuries. The seat of the Grand Master moved from Acre to Venice and in 1309 to Marienburg, Prussia. The Teutonic Order began striking coins in the late 13th century. In 1355 permission was granted to strike hellers at Mergentheim. However, the bulk of the Order's coinage until 1525 was schillings and half schoters minted in and for Prussia. In 1809 the Order was suppressed and Mergentheim was annexed to Wrttemberg.

TRIER
The city of Trier, located on the Mosel River just a few miles from the border with Luxembourg, was an important place from Roman times up to the modern era. Tradition holds that the Emperor Claudius founded the city as Augusta Trevirorum (imperial city of the Treviri, a Belgian tribe of that locale). Even today, Trier contains more Roman antiquities than any other city in northern Europe and was one of the earliest centers of Christianity north of the Alps. Some parts of the 4th century basilica built by Valentinian I (364-75) are extant in the present cathedral, which dates from the 11th to 13th centuries. Trier was the western capital of the Roman Empire until it was taken by the Franks in 464. A bishopric was established there at the dawn of the Middle Ages and was raised to an archbishopric under Bishop Hetto (814-47). The earliest archiepiscopal coinage dates from the end of the 10th century. The importance of Trier grew during the High Middle Ages as the city became one of the ecclesiastic electorates of the German Empire under Baldwin of Luxembourg (130754). That lofty status was confirmed by the Golden Bull of 1356, which permanently established the seven electorates of the Empire. The wealth, power and prestige of the archbishops continued through the Late Middle Ages and withstood the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century. The economy of Trier was severely circumscribed by the hyper-inflation of the early period of the Thirty Years War, and the city never regained its former position. Trier was taken by the French in 1794 and the last archbishop fled from his domains. In 1802, the archbishopric was secularized and divided between Nassau and France, but Prussia obtained most of Triers territory in 1815, following the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars.

ULM
A free city on the Danube located about 60 miles southeast of Stuttgart, Ulm is known from documents to have existed at least from the mid-9th century. During the 11th century, Ulm rose to prominence as the chief urban center of Swabia. The city was granted the distinction of a free imperial city in 1155. The right to mint its own coinage was given to the city in 1398. After a period of jointly issued coins with the cities of Ravensburg and berlingen, Ulm struck a long series on its own beginning in 1546. Local city coinage ended in 1773, but it was not until 1803 that its free status ended, at which time Ulm became part of Bavaria. Ulm passed permanently to Wrttemberg in 1809.

WALDECK
The former Countship of Waldeck was located in the western part of the German Empire, bordered by the Landgraviate of Hesse-Cassel on the east and south, the Duchy of Westphalia on the west and the Bishopric of Paderborn on the north. Arolsen was the seat of the counts and they traced their line of descent from a branch of the counts of Schwalenberg beginning in the early 11th century. Waldeck underwent several divisions over the centuries, the first such significant occurrence having taken place in 1474 with the establishment of Waldeck-Wildungen and WaldeckEisenberg. The latter was further divided into Waldeck-Eisenberg and Waldeck-Neu-Landau in 1539, but the former inherited Wildungen when the elder branch of the family became extinct in 1598. The line at Neu-Landau failed after two generations and reverted to Eisenberg the previous year (1597). A new line at Wildungen was established from Eisenberg in 1598 as well, but this, too, fell extinct in 1692, only ten years after the count having been raised to the rank of prince. Waldeck-Eisenberg had received the Countship of Pyrmont in 1625 and became known as Waldeck-Pyrmont (see) upon the permanent unification of the two countships in 1668.

WALDECK-PYRMONT
The Count of Waldeck-Eisenberg inherited the Countship of Pyrmont, located between Lippe and Hannover, in 1625, thus creating an entity which encompassed about 672 square miles (1120 square kilometers). Waldeck and Pyrmont were permanently united in 1668, thus continuing the Eisenberg line as WaldeckPyrmont from that date. The count was raised to the rank of prince in 1712 and the unification of the two territories was confirmed in 1812. Waldeck-Pyrmont joined the German Confederation in 1815 and the North German Confederation in 1867. The prince renounced his sovereignty on 1 October of that year and WaldeckPyrmont was incorporated into Prussia. However, coinage was struck into the early 20th century for Waldeck-Pyrmont as a member of the German Empire. The hereditary territorial titles were lost along with the war in 1918. Some coins were struck for issue in Pyrmont only in the 18th through 20th centuries and those are listed separately under that name.

After the division of Wied in 1698, Runkel was made up of 3 unjoined properties. The largest of these was east of Coblenz and the other 2 were north of Coblenz and adjoined Wied-Neuwied. Wied-Runkel was mediatized in the Napoleonic era but had claimants long after.

WISMAR
A seaport on the Baltic, the city of Wismar is said to have obtained municipal rights from Mecklenburg in 1229. It was an important member of the Hanseatic League in the 13th and 14th centuries. The citys coinage began at the end of the 13th century and terminated in 1854. It belonged to Sweden from 1648 to 1803. A special plate money was struck by the Swedes in 1715 when the town was under siege. In 1803, Sweden sold Wismar to Mecklenburg-Schwerin. The transaction was confirmed in 1815.

WORMS
The site of present-day Worms, located on the Rhine River 25 miles south of Mainz, was occupied before the Roman advance into Germany. An imperial mint was established in the town in the late 9th century and operated through the end of the 11th century. Worms was created a free imperial city in 1156 and obtained the mint right, separate from the bishopric, in 1234. However, most of the city's coinage was produced during the 17th century, with a few commemoratives having been struck also in the early18th century. French forces burned the city to the ground in 1689 and Worms was very slow to recover. It was annexed to France in 1801, but passed along with the episcopal lands to Hesse-Darmstadt in 1815.

WURTTEMBERG
Located in South Germany, between Baden and Bavaria, Wrttemberg obtained the mint right in 1374. In 1495 the rulers became dukes. In 1802 the duke exchanged some of his land on the Rhine with France for territories nearer his capital city. Napoleon elevated the duke to the status of elector in 1803 and made him a king in 1806. The kingdom joined the German Empire in 1871and endured until the king abdicated in 1918.

WURTTEMBERG-OLS
(Wrttemberg-ls) In 1647, Sylvius Nimrod, the elder son of Duke Julius Friedrich of Wrttemberg-Weiltingen, married Elisabeth Maria, the only child of the last duke of Mnsterberg-ls in Silesia, Karl Friedrich. The duchy of ls thus passed to the control of a cadet line of the dukes of Wrttemberg until nearly the end of the 18 th century. The three surviving sons of Sylvius Nimrod lived under the regency of their mother until 1672, as he had died while they were still young, but then they divided their territory and titles. They established the branches of Wrttemberg-ls, Wrttembergls-Bernstadt and Wrttemberg-ls-Juliusburg. The elder line of Wrttemberg-ls became extinct after only one generation and the two younger brothers divided those lands as well. When Bernstadt and Juliusburg died out in 1742 and 1745 respectively, all the ls territories were reconstituted in the remaining member of the family, Karl Christian Erdmann, nephew of the last Bernstadt duke. He died childless in 1792 and ls passed to BrunswickWolfenbttel by virtue of his marriage to Friederike, daughter of Friedrich August of that duchy.

WURZBURG
Wrzburg is situated on the River Main some 60 miles (100 km) east-southeast of Frankfurt am Main, having been founded during the seventh century. St. Boniface established a bishopric there in 741 and installed the first bishop, St. Burchard. His successors received the right to mint coins in the 11th century. The earliest coins were issued under Bruno von Krnten (1034-45) and featured a monogram based on his name. This devise usually took the form of a cross with letters attached to the arms. This basic type lasted until the 15th century and was occasionally resurredted after that time. In 1441, the bishop as also invested as the Duke of East Franconia and that title was incorporated into the inscriptions of the episcopal coinage. The bishopric of Wrzburg was secularized in 1803 and annexed by Bavaria. Except for the period 1806-14, when it was made into a grand duchy for Archduke Ferdinand of Salzburg and Tuscany, Wrzburg remained a part of Bavaria.

The Gold Coast, a region of Northwest Africa along the Gulf of Guinea, was first visited by Portuguese traders in 1470, and through the 17th century was used by various European powers -England, Denmark, Holland, Germany - as a center for their slave trade. Britain achieved control of the Gold Coast in 1821, and established the colony of Gold Coast in1874. In 1901 Britain annexed the neighboring Ashanti Kingdom in the same year a northern region known as the Northern Territories became a British protectorate. Part of the former German colony of Togoland was mandated to Britain by the League of Nations and administered as part of the Gold Coast. The state of Ghana, comprising the Gold Coast and British Togoland, obtained independence on March 6, 1957, becoming the first Negro African colony to do so.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, located off the northwest coast of the European continent, has an area of 94,227 sq. mi. (244,820 sq. km.) and a population of 54 million. Capital: London. The economy is based on industrial activity and trading. Machinery, motor vehicles, chemicals, and textile yarns and fabrics are exported. After the departure of the Romans, who brought Britain into a more active relationship with Europe, it fell prey to invaders from Scandinavia and the Low Countries who drove the original Britons into Scotland and Wales, and established a profusion of kingdoms that finally united in the 11th century under the Danish King Canute. Norman rule, following the conquest of 1066, stimulated the development of those institutions, which have since distinguished British life. Henry VIII (1509-47) turned Britain from continental adventuring and faced it to the sea - a decision that made Britain a world power during the reign of Elizabeth I (15581603). Strengthened by the Industrial Revolution and the defeat of Napoleon, 19th century Britain turned to the remote parts of the world and established a colonial empire of such extent and prosperity that the world has never seen its like. World Wars I and II sealed the fate of the Empire and relegated Britain to a lesser role in world affairs by draining her resources and inaugurating a worldwide movement toward national self-determination in her former colonies. By the mid 20th century, most of the territories formerly comprising the British Empire had gained independence, and the empire had evolved into the Commonwealth of Nations, an association of equal and autonomous states, which enjoy special trade interests. The Commonwealth is presently composed of 50 member nations, including the United Kingdom. All recognize the British monarch as head of the Commonwealth. Sixteen continue to recognize the British monarch as Head of State. They are: United Kingdom, Antigua and Barbuda, Australia, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Canada, Grenada, Jamaica, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, St. Christopher & Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Solomon Islands, and Tuvalu. Elizabeth II is personally, and separately, the Queen of the sovereign, independent countries just mentioned. There is no other British connection between the several individual, national sovereignties, except that they are each represented by High Commissioners instead of ambassadors in each others countries.

Emergency issue consisting of foreign silver coins, usually Spanish Colonial, having a bust of George III within an oval (1797) or octagonal (1840) frame. Countermarked 8 Reales circulated at 4 Shillings 9 Pence in 1797 and 5 Shillings in 1804. The puncheons used for countermarking foreign coins for this series were available for many years afterward, especially the oval die and apparently a number of foreign coins other than Spanish or Spanish Colonial 8 Reales were countermarked for collectors.

COUNTERMARKED COINAGE
English Tradesmen
During the last half of the 18th century and the early years of the 19th century, the gold coinage predominated in Great Britain and the limited issues of silver coins between the years 1758 and 1816 did little to relieve the shortage of smaller denominations. During the 1790s a partial solution to the problem began to be offered by private tradesmen through the countermarking of foreign dollars, chiefly Spanish Colonial issues from the Americas, with a punch validating them for local circulation and redemption. The majority of these tradesmens countermarked issues circulated in Scotland; in England two cotton mills, two colleries, and a merchant also countermarked foreign silver coins.

The State of Grenada, located in the Windward Islands of the Caribbean Sea 90 miles (145 km.) north of Trinidad, has (with Carriacou and Petit Martinique) an area of 133 sq. mi. (344 sq. km.) and a population of 94,000. Capital: St.George's. Grenada is the smallest independent nation in the Western Hemisphere. The economy is based on agriculture and tourism. Sugar, coconuts, nutmeg, cocoa and bananas are exported. Columbus discovered Grenada in 1498 during his third voyage to the Americas. Spain failed to colonize the island, and in 1627 granted it to the British who sold it to the French who colonized it in 1650. Grenada was captured by the British in 1763, retaken by the French in 1779, and finally ceded to the British in 1783. In 1958 Grenada joined the Federation of the West Indies, which was dissolved in 1962. In 1967 it became an internally selfgoverning British associated state. Full independence was attained on Feb. 4, 1974. Grenada is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. The prime minister is the Head of Government. Elizabeth II is Head of State as Queen of Grenada. The early coinage of Grenada consists of cut and countermarked pieces of Spanish or Spanish Colonial Reales, which were valued at 11 Bits. In 1787 8 Reales coins were cut into 11 triangular pieces and countermarked with an incuse G. Later in 1814 large denomination cut pieces were issued being 1/2, 1/3 or 1/6 cuts and countermarked with a TR, incuse G and a number 6, 4,2, or 1 indicating the value in bitts.

The Republic of Guatemala, the northernmost of the five Central American republics, has an area of 42,042 sq. mi. (108,890 sq. km.) and a population of 10.7 million. Capital: Guatemala City. The economy of Guatemala is heavily dependent on agriculture, however, the country is rich in nickel resources which are being developed. Coffee, cotton and bananas are exported. Guatemala, once the site of an ancient Mayan civilization, was conquered by Pedro de Alvarado, the resourceful lieutenant of Cortes who undertook the conquest from Mexico. Cruel but strategically skillful, he progressed rapidly along the Pacific coastal lowlands to the highland plain of Quetzaltenango where the decisive battle for Guatemala was fought. After routing the Indian forces, he established the city of Guatemala in 1524. The Spanish Captaincy-General of Guatemala included all Central America but Panama. Guatemala declared its independence of Spain in 1821 and was absorbed into the Mexican empire of Augustin Iturbide (1822-23). From1823 to 1839 Guatemala was a constituent state of the Central American Republic. Upon dissolution of that confederation, Guatemala proclaimed itself an independent republic. Like El Salvador, Guatemala suffered from internal strife between right-wing, US-backed military government and leftist indigenous peoples from ca. 1954 to ca. 1997.

The French Overseas Department of Guadeloupe, located in the Leeward Islands of the West Indies about300 miles (493 km.) southeast of Puerto Rico, has an area of 687 sq. mi. (1,780 sq. km.) and a population of 306,000. Actually it is two islands separated by a narrow salt water stream: volcanic Basse-Terre to the west and the flatter limestone formation of Grande-Terre to the east. Capital: Basse-Terre, on the island of that name. The principal industries are agriculture, the distillation of liquors, and tourism. Sugar, bananas, and rum are exported. Guadeloupe was discovered by Columbus in 1493 and settled in 1635 by two Frenchmen, L'Olive and Duplessis, who took possession in the name of the French Company of the Islands of America.

The original area of Essequibo and Demerary, which included present-day Suriname, French Guiana, and parts of Brazil and Venezuela was sighted by Columbus in 1498.The first European settlement was made late in the 16th century by the Dutch, however, the region was claimed for the British by Sir Walter Raleigh during the reign of Elizabeth I. For the next 150 years, possession alternated between the Dutch and the British, with a short interval of French control. The British exercised de facto control after 1796, although the area, which included the Dutch colonies of Essequibo, Demerary and Berbice, was not ceded to them by the Dutch until 1814. From 1803 to1831, Essequibo and Demerary were administered separately from Berbice. The three colonies were united in the British Crown Colony of British Guiana in 1831. British Guiana won internal self-government in 1952 and full independence, under the traditional name of Guyana, on May 26,1966. Guyana became a republic on Feb. 23, 1970. It is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. The president is the Chief of State. The prime minister is the Head of Government.

The Republic of Haiti, which occupies the western one-third of the island of Hispaniola in the Caribbean Sea between Puerto Rico and Cuba, has an area of 10,714 sq. mi. (27,750 sq. km.) and a population of 6.5 million. Capital: Port-au-Prince. The economy is based on agriculture; but light manufacturing and tourism are increasingly important. Coffee, bauxite, sugar, essential oils and handicrafts are exported. Columbus discovered Hispaniola in 1492. Spain colonized the island, making Santo Domingo the base for exploration of the Western Hemisphere. The area that is now Haiti was ceded to France by Spain in 1697. Slaves brought from Africa to work the coffee and sugar cane plantations made it one of the richest colonies of the French Empire. A slave revolt in the 1790's led to the establishment of the Republic of Haiti in1804, making it the oldest Black republic in the world and the second oldest republic (after the United States) in the Western Hemisphere. The French language is used on Haitian coins although it is spoken by only about 10% of the populace. A form of Creole is the language of the Haitians. RULERS French, until 1804

TOWN OF LE CAP
(Old Cap Francois) Port city on the northern coast of Haiti. Under a French edict of July 13, 1781 various Spanish-American and other circulating silver coins were to be counterstamped with a crowned anchor and C for the island. These were made at the capitol and the pieces given values of 1 Escalin and 1/2 Escalin. In 1792, a decree from the local Governor authorized the countermarking of Spanish American, French, and English copper coins. An L.C. mark was designated for use in the capital city of Le Cap, while an S:D. mark was to be used for general circulation on the entire island. MONETARY SYSTEM 15 Sols = 1 Escalin (1 Real)

The Republic of Hungary, located in central Europe, has an area of 35,929 sq. mi. (93,030 sq. km.) and a population of 10.7 million. Capital: Budapest. The economy is based on agriculture, bauxite and a rapidly expanding industrial sector. Machinery, chemicals, iron and steel, and fruits and vegetables are exported. The ancient kingdom of Hungary, founded by the Magyars in the 9th century, achieved its greatest extension in the mid-14th century when its dominions touched the Baltic, Black and Mediterranean Seas. After suffering repeated Turkish invasions, Hungary accepted Habsburg rule to escape Turkish occupation, regaining independence in 1867 with the Emperor of Austria as king of a dual Austro-Hungarian monarchy. After World War I, Hungary lost 2/3 of its territory and 1/2 of its population and underwent a period of drastic political revision. The short-lived republic of 1918 was followed by a chaotic interval of communist rule, 1919, and the restoration of the monarchy in 1920 with Admiral Horthy as regent of the kingdom. Although a German ally in World War II, Hungary was occupied by German troops who imposed a pro-Nazi dictatorship, 1944. Soviet armies drove out the Germans in 1945 and assisted the communist minority in seizing power. A revised constitution published on Aug. 20, 1949, established Hungary as a People's Republic' of the Soviet type. On October 23, 1989, Hungary was proclaimed the Republic of Hungary. RULER Austrian

REVOLUTIONARY COINAGE
Malcontents
Hungary was discontented with the Habsburg Monarchy. Its opportunity to break free came when the emperor, due to his involvement in the War of the Spanish Succession, withdrew nearly all his troops. There was an immediate rebellion and Francis Rakoczy II, elected prince by the diet in 1704, became the leader. Even though the armies were large in number, they were ill-equipped and without artillery. After defeating the French at Blenheim, the emperor sent an army into Hungary and badly defeated Rakoczy in 1705. Two Rakoczyian diets deposed the Habsburgs in 1707 and formed an interim government with Rakoczy at its head until a national king could be elected. Joseph I, who succeeded Leopold as emperor, refused to come to terms with his subjects even though he was strongly urged to do so by his allies. In 1708 Rakoczy was defeated again very decisively even though a guerilla war still went on. Joseph died in 1711 and was succeeded by his brother Charles VI who restored peace on the basis of a general amnesty.

The Lodi Sultanate of Delhi was conquered by Zahir-ud-din Muhammad Babur, a Chagatai Turk descended from Tamerlane, in 1525AD. His son, Nasir-ud-din Muham-mad Humayun, lost the new empire in a series of battles with the Bihari Afghan Sher Shah, who founded the short-lived Suri dynasty. Humayun, with the assistance of the Emperor of Persia, recovered his kingdom from Sher Shah's successors in 1555AD. He did not long enjoy the fruits of victory for his fatal fall down his library steps brought his teenage son Jalal-ud-din Muhammad Akbar to the throne in the following year. During Akbar's long reign of a half century, the Mughal Empire was firmly established throughout much of North India. Under Akbar's son and grandson, the emperors Nur-ud-din Muhammad Jahangir and Shihab-ud-din Muhammad Shah Jahan, the state reached its apogee and art, culture and commerce flourished. One of the major achievements of the Mughal government was the establishment of a universal silver currency, based on the rupee, a coin of 11.6 grams and as close to pure silver content as the metallurgy of the time was capable of attaining. Supplementary coins were the copper dam and gold mohur. The values of these coin denominations were nominally fixed at 40 dams to 1 rupee, and 8 rupees to 1 mohur; however, market forces determined actual exchange rates. The maximum expansion of the geographical area under direct Mughal rule was achieved during the reign of Aurangzeb Alamgir. By his death in 1707AD, the whole peninsula, with minor exceptions, the whole subcontinent of India owed fealty to the Mughal emperor. Aurangzeb's wars, lasting decades, upset the stability and prosperity of the kingdom. The internal dissension and rebellion which resulted brought the eclipse of the empire in succeeding reigns. The Mughal monetary system, especially the silver rupee, supplanted most local currencies throughout India. The number of Mughal mints rose sharply and direct central control declined, so that by the time of the emperor Shah Alam II, many nominally Mughal mints served independent states. The common element in all these coinage issues was the presence of the Mughal emperor's name and titles on the obverse. In the following listings no attempt has been made to solve the problem of separating
Mughal from Princely State coins by historical criteria: all Mughalstyle coins are considered products of the Mughal empire until the death of Muhammad Shah in 1784AD; thereafter all coins are considered Princely State issues unless there is evidence of the mint being under ever-diminishing Imperial control.

A succession of governors from 1773AD controlled Agra nominally as officers of the Mughal emperor but actually for themselves and, after 1785, for the Maratha Peshwa.

The early issues tended to be normal size for the hammered coinage (about 22mm). As the power of the emperor waned, the flan size of the Shahjahanabad rupees waxed, reflecting the increasingly ceremonial role of the coinage. The later coins should not be confused with the Nazarana (presentation) coins, which always show a full border design around the legend. Umarkot (in Sind) Tirtha Shrine - Hardwar II. Poetic Allusion:

Zain-ul-Bilad Beauty of Cities - Ahmadabad DATING The Mughal coins were dated both in the Hejira era and in the regnal era of each emperor. The four-digit Hejira year usually was shown on the obverse, with the one or two-digit regnal (jalus) year on the reverse. Since the regnal and calendar years did not coincide, it was common for two different regnal years to appear on the coins produced during any calendar year. The first jalus year of each reign was usually written as a word, ahd, rather than as a numeral. An exception to the foregoing is that the date on certain coins struck in the Islamic millenial year AH1000 is sometimes represented by the Arabic word Alf, meaning,one thousand. This device was especially used by the Urdu Zafar Qarin Mint. THE ILAHI ERA In his 29th regnal year Akbar determined to use a regnal era based on solar years in his administration, instead of the Hejira or Era of the Hegira based on lunar years. The new dating system appeared on the coins the same year, and continued until Akbar's death in Year 50. Mints gradually changed their usage from AH to Ilahi, although some did not convert. During the Ilahi period, many of the mints included the Persian month names as well as year of issue. Use of Ilahi dates continued into the reign of Shah Jahan. Synchronization of Ilahi, Hejira and AD Eras:

Mintname (Itawa)
Inscription, (read right to left, bottom to top) Struck in Itawa in the Year One of the accession associated with prosperity. There are many variations of this layout, especially as to the poetic couplet containing the rulers name on the obverse. In general however the provincial mints and independent state mints used the simple standard pattern. MOHUR First general issue in gold, the mohur with Hejira dating. All mohurs during Akbar's first thirty years (and some thereafter) carried the Kalima on the obverse and his name and titles on the reverse. They maintained the same weight standard, around 11 grams. Planchets were regularly round except for the rare lozenge-shaped mehrabi and some square types after AH987. There was much variety in borders and ornamentation, and some in royal titulature.

Largesse Coinage
Nisar The nisar, literally scattering coins, were lightweight silver and gold coins minted especially as largesse money to be scattered amongst the crowd during festival processions and suchlike state occasions. The coins were struck to 1/32 rupee, 1/16 rupee, 1/8 rupee, 1/4 rupee and 1/2 rupee weights. To better economize, they were very thin with wide flans, appearing more generous than was the case. All coins bore the name nisar, and the different weights should not be considered separate denominations, since this was ceremonial and not circulating currency. The 1/4 rupee weight is encountered more frequently while specimens struck in the other weights remain quite rare.
