Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel Mints, Mint-marks, Mint-masters & Die-cutters

How to use this list. Look at the mint-mark and date that is on your coin. Next, look at the list for the mint-mark. Next step is to go to the mint-master and die-cutters list and look under the mint the coin was minted at and the date range of the coin, and you will find the name of the mint-master or the die-cutter. You will find that the first, last and sometimes the middle initial of the mint-master or die-cutters name is used for the mint-mark.

I'm working on finding the names of mint-wardens of the Munz commission from 1711 to 1806. It will not be easy, but the fun is in doing the research to find the answers.
