„Kipper- und Wipperzeit“ 1619-1623

Die größte Inflation in der Geschichte des Heiligen Römischen Reichs deutscher Nation

2023 marks the 400th anniversary of the end of the "kipper-and-wipper-period", an era of dramatic monetary devaluation. Three centuries before the German Hyperinflation, massive coin debasement and the destruction of large assets occurred.
The contributions in this volume are devoted to "kipper" coinage in Braunschweig-Lüneburg, Mecklenburg, Pomerania, Kurtrier and Westphalia, a current recording project of "Kipper coins" and the reception of the "kipper-and-wipper-period" by Wilhelm Hauff and Gustav Freytag.
With essays by Ralf Fischer zu Cramburg, Gabriel Heeren and Konrad Schneider, Torsten Fried, Rainer Grund and Christian Klose, Paul Höffgen, Stefan Kötz, Joachim Krüger, Wolfgang Leschhorn, Matthias Ohm and Julius Roch.

The Numismatic Commission, founded in 1950, is a scientific organization of the German states and is committed to promoting and processing the history of coins and money as well as to the Coin Find Catalogue Middle Ages/Modern Era.
