The Principality of Anhalt-Zerbst played a significant role in German numismatics during the 17th century. Carl Wilhelm, who ruled from 1667 to 1718, was a key figure influencing coinage. During his reign, the Jeverland, which traditionally had its own currency, was integrated into Anhalt-Zerbst's monetary systems. Coins were minted in places like Zerbst and Jever.

The coins from this era are renowned for their high quality and the impressive prince's portrait on the obverse. A common denomination was the 2/3 Taler or Gulden, minted according to the Zinnaische Convention of 1667.
