It But it didn't stop there with minting thalers. Two coin strikes with that Mintmark from Hans, apple sroschen from 1608 and 1609, were made by the coinage edict of Elector Christian II of Saxony (1610) and the coinage regulations of the Lower Saxony District of January 20, 1610 “as much too low, to spend and take completely forbidden things”. on- Hanses was asked to answer for this on March 2nd u EAE R E

By another letter the latter of March 24th seems to have settled the matter be. In any case, Hanses was born on Easter Monday (March 25th) 1611 again for five years with the management of both mints entrusted and ran to Christoph Feistell from Zellerfeld to mint Ordained and sworn in at Oldendorf, while Kohl as Count Lippe mint master went to Blomberg). Hanses lost spoke about visiting the Oldendorf mint every six months, but stayed there only when the district permitted it coins to let. Apparently accordingly has Feistell are allowed to leave little mark; because in March 1613 Hanses was named of the Count by Drosten and the bailiff von Pinneberg Accused that he had violated his oath and the orders of the Counts except for this hour the minting in Oldendorf set, why he will now be given farewell. He referred to his reservation in his reply of March 19th and the fact that the district gave him the coinage in Oldendorf repeatedly banned have, since he didn't give the count two coins places allow still want to grant. They were now looking for one another way out, to be able to collect coins in both places, without dals there could be talk of two mints; was already since 1609 Oldendorf was only referred to as a branch of Altona, This is how the relationship between the two mints was designed now even narrower in shape. On September 29, 1614 namely Christoph Feistell for five years “in our Muntz position to Oldendorf, the one with dero in our county of Holstein to Altena is a Mintz office”, employed as a mint manager, at the same time- early Henning Brauns, Count's Lippescher Münzwardein to Blomberg, as Wardein?).

But it was also, especially since Hanse in 1616 confirmed again, actually gave rise to significant complaints against the coin available in Altona. After the request for permission to mint larger quantities of small coins had been repeatedly rejected, Hanses had permit “good imperial thalers broken and coined” and especially the coins of the neighboring country, which are good in shot and grain. Barten Hamburg used. So small coins flooded in the land in quantity and sank in value, but the gross money disappeared more and more from circulation and became more expensive.

Through The latter agreed to pay at least 150 marks a week fine silver on the coin to Altona to deliver, from which they Schockenberger alone should influence him, as she did in Oldenburg, Jever and other Westphalian or neighboring districts and stands would be beaten. The established character is that described here under the coins of Count Ernst, a previously completely unknown in Holstein. It should be the rough one Mark 9 Lot 3 Grän kept fine and distributed in 47 pieces so that the piece weighs about 5 g rough and 2.85 g fine would. With these horrors (by some also Mallshillings or Escalins) now flooded Gabriel de Valentza probably the entire Westphalian district, received he yes weekly out his 150 marks fine Silvers 12300 pieces! Since he is responsible for the embossing 20 Lübische Schillings on every mark, i.e. over 74 thalers weekly, 3852 thalers annually on the mint master and moreover 870 thalers annually to the Counts to pay committed to That's how the business has to be have been very profitable for him. If, as is usually the case, the Schockenberger with a fineness of 2.85 g is sold as a sixth thaler set, so for 17 g of fine silver a thaler was taken, which was 25.5 g Should keep up fine, he won just 50 v.

The count was like the sum promised to him proves not uninvolved, had also assured his mint master, him when he was given this imprint by the circle on the probation day be punished should, to protect and harmless to keep, on the other hand but yourself from the client's belongings Good for security for any damage prescribe and one Guarantors for that put let.

Denis received from the count an interest-free loan of 5000 thalers, repayable after three years, and had for his part to be paid firstly to the mint master for each mark 24 Lübische shillings, so weekly more than 130 thalers per year 7000 thalers, second to the count 2000 thalers annually and had to an amount of 6700 thalers as a pledge on the coin stand by Altona let. The order was for Hanses like that great, when he set up a second coin factory in Altona mulste, to which the count delivered the timber to him free of charge - with a waiver of the fine of 200 thalers per year the impression of the Schockenbergers. About the bad coins coming from Altona King Christian of Denmark was already on February 18, 1616 complained to Count Ernst. The latter replied on March 26th, he always did what he could to prevent things from getting worse Coin was possible, as was his mint master, who alone “Almost more valuable Reichsthalers than all the other mint masters of the Dutch Westphalian Creifses”. The bad money hardly comes from Altona, much more from Hamburg! In 1618, Hanses was replaced by Christoph Feistell, who was familiar with the conditions from Oldendorf, as Mint Master for both mints appointed and on April 15th sworn. His mint mark has already been thought the Zain Haken is also in his seal above a jumping coming horse.

So Denis turned the approximately 2,700 thalers into holding 300 marks finely minted with the addition of copper 600 marks from this 115,200 groschen and paid the mint master for each one fine Mark 24, so for 300 Marks 7200 Groschen, also him 108,000 groschen or 4,500 thalers remained, which was after deducting the used 2700 Taler one weekly excess from 1800 thalers resulted. Of this were 139 thalers to the count and another 20 thalers to pay the mint master, the copper likes 30 thalers have tasted; after deducting these together 189 thalers still remained a weekly profit of more than 1,600 thalers for Denis, while Feistell had 320, the Count had to make do with 139 thalers. Through all sorts of adverse circumstances, Denis died in August 1619 forced, his profitable business to give up, and Hanses now became a silver supplier, for which the count gave him 10,000 thalers stretched out. He obliged yourself, weekly at least 300 marks fine to deliver to Altona, where double shillings, 123 on the 7'/, solder mark, should be minted from it, i.e. each Week 78 720 pieces. Feistell received 1 thaler for the mark Hit money, Hanses for 100 marks each 7 thalers and for horse and Wagon (for bringing the silver) 200 thalers annually.

But the Imperial district division from 1512 hasSchauburg to the West False circles placed. The financial system in the county was good with that in the county of Hoya!), and one can after that four periods in monetary relations differentiate. 1.

The Weight mark silver becomes in the documents of this area 12th and 13th centuries only marca called and very rare denoted with the addition argenti, in 1181 and 1233 as marca argenti, 1213 as dimidium fertonis (i.e. '/, mark) argenti. to- first in 1268, then predominant since 1280, from 1300 onwards almost exclusively Finally, marcae bremensis argenti are required (also 1315: mark bremesches sulvers). During this time it was happening apparently the diversity in the feeding of the Silver bars from the individual cities more conspicuous noticeable and caused a more precise determination. This is how you heal it e.g. B. 1317: per 6 marcis bremensis argenti emimus 5 solidos denariorum area forensi, 4 solidos graves, 9 $ graves. The weight, weighed with that became, is not found denotes, but it was undisputedly Bremen, i.e. this Cologne, which was also followed in Minden. It come before 1301: marcae bremensis argenti et mindensis ponderis; 1) See Grote, a. a. O., IV, 8. 211-238.

422 Wine master: 1317: marcae bremensis argenti et Indaginis (Stadthagen) ponderis; 1320: marcae puri argenti et Hildesiensis ponderis. The people of Minden are initially under pfennigs and on the side also to understand the Herford denarii, since 1300 the latter have been quite lich exclusively. So come before 1190; solidi mindensis monetae; 1235 and 1331: solidi mindensium denariorum;, 1261: talenta mindensis monetae; 1277: marca denariorum empordensis monetae; 1282: talenta denariorum mindensium; 1287: marcae denariorum in Lemego usualium; next to it 1259: solidi levis monetae, so Bracteates, in whose shape one can also see the mindenses denariüi has to think; then again in 1335: solidi graves usualium denari- orum vordensis et lemogensis monetae; 1336: solidi cursalis monetae,; 1342: Hervordian pennies. The Minden pfennigs (bractates) were according to talentis (pounds) to 20 solid: (dozen- The pound was counted at 240 pfennigs, but it was in 1284 one in denarii the mindensis et hamelensis usualis et legalis moneta Payment made according to counting marks calculated, this one (later at least) according to the Westphalian method of accounting 12 dozen Denarii, i.e. 144 pfennigs. The Cologne weight mark corresponds to today's time a weight of 233.8 g. For comparison with the opposite contemporary imperial silver coins be reminded, that after that Imperial Laws of July 9, 1873 from one pound (500 g) of fine Silver 100 M. to be minted. Accordingly, the fine cologne has cal mark a current silver money value of 46.76 M. The marca usualis bremensis argenti was not made of fine silver, but it came on 16 Lot rough only 11 lots 5 grains fine. After that had the usual weight mark has a value of just 32.96 m. today silver money. What the split coin the pfennig (denarius) corresponds to about 0.11 M., the Schilling (solidus) equals 12 pfennigs about 1.37 marks, the pound Pfennige (talentum) equals 240 pieces about 27.41 M. 2. In the middle of the 14th century the bill occurred after the counting mark in place of the previous currency and reigned for about a hundred years. Apparently last in 1352

Coin history of the county of Holstein-Schauenburg. 423 The previous marcae bremensis argenti appear, from then on one counted according to the Bremen, sometimes also according to the Western Falish or Lübische counting marks. The counting mark was probably in the sense that they were originally intended to have the value one mark by weight of silver represent should. But early on meant they have a lower value. as shown in the information that fall during the transition period. This is how you find one from 1347: 14 marcae Hervordensium denariorum vel per 7 marcis puri argenti, si pecunia eats alterata. So here was for the In the case of low-value money, payment is required in silver bars and 14 counting marks equals 7 weight marks, the counting mark equals one half weight mark set. In the case of actual puri argenti would accordingly the counting mark an amount from 23.38 m. equal to today's silver money, in the case of only usualis Argenti on the other hand, 16.48 M. The counting mark became just initially to 10, always later calculated at 12 shillings; who had shillings always 12 pfennigs. After that the shilling was 1.95 to 1.37 M. the penny is worth 0.16 to 0.11 M. When pennies ruled until 1380 that of the two most important trading towns of Lippstadt and especially Lemgo before, since then the Herford denarii, next to those also Osnabrück residents were valid. With the Lemgoers Denarii must not exactly the ones minted in Lemgo be, but it acted probably just about the people practicing there lichen. Like it than here be duly cited!) 1361: offenbruggsche mark; 1368: 18 mark penninge also tho Hervord shinge and geue sint; 1374: 2 solidi mindenses aut unus solidus osnebrugensis; 1375: 9 mark swarer penninge; 1377 (as purchase price for the county of Sternberg): 3000 mark pfennigs, like you to Lemgo are common practice, so 432000 Denarii (approx 50,000 marks); 1378: 2000 marks, de mark 12 swares shillings; 1386: pensio 4 solidorum mindensium denariorum; 1387: 44 solidi 1) Mostly after Wippermann, Regesta Schaumburgensia, like that previous information.

It was not until the middle of the 15th century that Gold guilders (foreni aurei) general accounting and number medium and remained so until around 1580. Their introduction took place here so essential later than in neighboring Münster and Osnabrück, where they were the most common a hundred years earlier Means of payment had begun to become. The fineness of these Guilders, which only came later, in contrast to the silver guilders groschen, called gold guilders, was therefore in their time Introducing inSchauenburg no longer 3.4 g as in the last one Quarter des 14th century, but was only 2.5 g. According to the Reich Law of December 4, 1871, one Pounds (500 g) of fine gold 139'/, crowns minted in 10 sts, sodafs 1 st in gold 0.36 g of pure gold represents. After that In the middle of the 15th century the gold guilder was 7.22 M. Gold value, around °/, of a modern German crown. The previous mark was initially in the new gold currency °/s to '/, fl., but gradually decreased in value to '/„ fl. (1520), finally on !/, fl. (1552). As livestock prices can be found in Mit- divisions from 1464 e.g. 2 oxen =5 fl, 1cow=2f. 4. From 1580 onwards the thaler or silver guilder began pennies to rule. During this time, the transfer took place at the same time transition from the Westphalian market calculation to the Lower Saxony one Penny bill instead. The thaler was 1555 in Lower Saxony increased from 32 to 36 Mariengroschen (equal to 15 marks), The Mariengroschen was worth 5 shillings or 12 Gosler. In West were wrong instead the Marypenny princely or apple Groschen were introduced, of which 24 were initially denominated in thalers. Despite of later sinking of the penny value kept the Apple dime in character the value number 24. On the other hand, wore The thaler also initially had the value 24, then 28; a half Taler of Count Justus Hermann shows the value number 16, which So that would correspond to a 32 on the thaler. a 1

Of course stayed that too The county's financial system is not spared from all the storms, which will affect the entire German monetary economy in the following years tenth raged and in the infamous Kipper and Wipper time reached its peak. You can see the effects of shot and grain also one's own character; but also numerically the decline can be traced, This is what we see from one Files dated January 22, 1621, that the good one fully important Reichstaler, which was worth 24 princely or apple groschen before 1610. was set, in 1610-12 it was already counted at 26 groschen, 1613-15 to’ 28, 1616-17 to 30, 1618 to 32, 1619 to 36, 1620 to 48. Who now owes debts in times of bad money had made and after overcoming these evil times Wanted to pay back in good money, couldn't reasonably do so Payment of the full amount must be made. In that file from 1621 will accordingly (for the diocese Minden) following conversion debts to be repaid on- in an orderly manner: for debts from before 1610 there is no replacement let it take place, For those from 1610-12, 13 bad thalers are valid —=12Rtlr, out 1613-15 7 bad thalers = 6 Rilr., From 1616-17 5 bad thalers = 4 Rtlr., from 1618 apply 4 bad thalers = 3 rounds, from 1619 there are 3 bad thalers -?2 Rtlr., from 1620 2 bad thalers are valid -1 Rtlr. Press man after that the devaluation of money in hundreds, - like this You can see the decrease in value from the following numbers: before 1610: 100; 1610—12: 92; 1613-15: 86; 1616-17: 80; 1618: 75; 1619: 67; 1620: 50. Also new characteristics appeared at the time when the Massiveness of coins through variety in appearance less make noticeable wanted, like that the on the Holsteins The new prince's groschen, reminiscent of double shillings, was !/,, thaler (according to Paderborn pattern), whose but, since they are 4'/, soldered 29*

4236 Wine master: were and the rough mark contained 115 pieces, actually more when 45 went to the thaler; also the groschen to 3 kreuzers (Value number 3 on the eagle's chest), of which the true one Values after 58 must count for a thaler, and the princes Older style groschen of 12 (Goslarschen) pfennigs, 115 from the 4 solders mark, so actually 54 to one thaler. Also the Miserrippen or Dreier from 1622 are to be mentioned and the since 1620 minted copper coins to 6, 4, 3, 1’/, and 1 pfennig. The latter are not the oldest copper stamps, in Westphalia, for example. B. Münster already issued copper coins in 1543 beaten. After all, they are among the oldest. The need according to coins is always present been, as it is now, and there must be coins, their metal value below nominal lies. Not on the explained inferiority All of this character was based on this their seriously damaging effect on the financial system, but rather that them the coarse varieties so vastly predominated in quantity; the prescribed ratio, as it is ten times as much rough as small coins give should, had not only the other way around, but made even worse. A return to ordered coinage ratios mean the fine silver coinage of 4 and 2 Marian groschen, whose 9 and 18 went to one thaler; their introduction was based on this on the Mary pennies of the Lower Saxony district, the ones there formed the basis of coin calculations for a long time. — The Schauburg currency dates back to older times that of Holstein to differentiate. As a mint comes here initially only Hamburg into consideration, and there observed man the Lübischen Münzfuls, after the 15lötig pronounced became. However we ran the latter regulation will soon be disregarded. In 1334, for example, B. 512 pfennigs on the rough mark and 585 calculated to the fine mark, so that the loading only 14 soldered. After that A distinction was made between heavier and lighter ones Pfennigs, both 13 solders, the former worth 576, the latter worth 636 went to the rough mark, i.e. 709 or 783 to the fine mark.

Coin history of the county of Holstein-Schauenburg. 497 Schillings were first mentioned in documents in 1418. The Schilling was 3 Witten or 12 Pfennigs. The Witten were 12 solders, and 208 went to the rough, so 277 went to the fine Mark. In 1433, however, 100 pieces of 10-pound shillings were valid, 1461 even 104 pieces of 9-pound shillings one mark rough, so 160 respectively 185 one mark fine, which is about half of the previous price value means. At the same time, 12-pound double shillings arrived on, whose 70 went to the mark. Since In 1406 the coin mark came to 16 shillings in money need, whose 12/, (15 solders), then 11°/, (14!/, soldered), after that again 12 (14'/, soldered) went to the weight mark. The coin mark held yourself regarding of the grain as a whole always on the same height to 13 to 13'/, to the fine mark. Around 1500 counting again according to Witten, 3 to 1 shilling; in the one above reproduced document from 1512 become describe them as 5 soldered draws, 228 went to the rough mark, and the piece was valid 6 pfennigs. In addition to the Rhenish gold guilders, since 1528 the thalers on, the 15lötig to 8 on the rough, i.e. to 8'/, on the fine mark went. The thaler initially had 24 shillings, since 1568 but 27'/, since 1572 finally 32 shillings, so it was now 2 coin marks. In the 17th century the value of the Schillings continued, and in 1609 the thaler was already worth 34 ° /, shillings, 1610 further 37, 1615 then 38°/,, 1617 further 40'/,, 1620 final- lich 52. Since 1608, minting took place in Altona (in 1621 also in Olden- village) double shillings, initially at 16 per thaler, which is why they received the value 16. From 1610 onwards the sinking Value corresponding to the value number 18',, in place of the 16 sets. From 1616 to 1621 is she's 16 again, not as if now again 16 double shillings actually on the Reichstaler went into specie would be, but because the quick one more Sinking of the value the smaller coins reflect its indication let's guess. Since Count Ernst in 1619 from the 7'/, solder Mark 123 and in 1620 it even hit 130 double shillings, that's how it was actual value back then 31 and 32!/,.

428 Wine master: Next to it were also prince's penny in the course. You were minted in 1618 and 1620 from 8-lot silver, only 192, then 276 from the rough mark. So there were actually 45 and then 65 on the thaler. Finally, the horrors that have appeared on a massive scale since 1616 berger to mention. In the past they were often referred to as Dutch Dish Mall shillings or Zscalins referred to and mistaken assumed'), they were for those near the Dutch border The Gehmen rule in Münster was defeated, whose previous owners should have exercised the right to mint. However As stated above, these coins were mercenary Intention for any distribution determined. you wear almost all no value stated, just few are as 4 groschen draws. Anyway existed the intention, them as a sixth thaler to put into circulation. But since 47 from the beginning (1616) 9:,,lötigen, then (1617) Slötigen Mark were minted, i.e. 82 and then 94 from the fine marrow, so actually 9°/, and then 11 on the thaler. V.
