Stuttgart Mint: List of Coins Minted (Page 4 of 4)

In 1374, Eberhard II, Count of Wuerttemberg, first had coins minted in Stuttgart. Ever since Stuttgart has been the chief mint of Wuerttemberg: first of the county; then of the Duchy; and ultimately of the Kingdom. It retained that role when Wuerttemberg joined the German Empire in 1871 and when it merged with Baden to form the federal state of Baden-Wuerttemberg in 1952.

For more than 600 years, the Stuttgart mint was located in or near the city centre. In 1842, King Wilhelm I had a new minting facility built across from the Stuttgart Staatsgalerie. It suffered such severe damage during the Second World War that minting operations could barely be carried on. Thus the mint relocated to a newly built site in Bad Cannstatt in 1967.

The mint used the mint mark F.

In 1998, it merged with the Karlsruhe Mint to form the Staatliche Münzen Baden-Württemberg (State Mints of Baden-Württemberg), but the two mints retained their mint marks and coins minted at the Stuttgart facility still have F as a mint mark.

The Stuttgart Mint used the letter F for a mint mark.

On some coins, the Stuttgart Mint had no mint mark.
