La numismatique de Joachim Murat comme duc de Berg et Clève ne compte que le thaler et la pièce de trois stuber datés de 1806. On retrouve les mêmes espèces pour Joachim Murat comme Grand duc mais datées 1807.
Historical background
GERMANY - DUCHY OF BERG AND CLEVES - JOACHIM MURAT
(03/15/1806-07/15/1808)
Joachim Murat, Caroline Bonaparte's husband, received the duchy of Berg and Clève on March 15, 1806. The small state had only 300,000 inhabitants. On August 1, 1806, the duchy joined the Confederation of the Rhine. At the end of 1806, Napoleon raised the duchy to a grand duchy. On July 15, 1808, Murat abandoned Berg and Clève to become King of Naples.
