While analyzing some coins, I came across an unusual detail: they bear marks from two different mintmasters who belonged to different mints and were active at different times. The time gap between them is around 10 years.
The same question was sent to the Leipzig Mint Museum — no response. Perhaps due to a lack of information or an unwillingness to share it.
One of the coins was sold at a German auction in 1989, the other appeared in the “Coins of Germany 1500–1700” section of the “Violity” auction.
Does anyone have an idea how such a combination of mintmarks could have come about?
