Comments

(en) In 1525, the silver content of the Schilling was dropped from .281 to .1875. As a result, the subdivisions changed: after 1525, there were 12 Schillings in 1 Ferding rather than the usual 9.

1540-dated coins are posthumous issues. All coins from 1540 and some from 1539 have the date separated by the cross and crosier; all others have the date in the legend.

The exact lettering of the surrounding legend may vary.
