“Frederick II regarded Poland as an unlocked storehouse. Having captured the Saxon mint at the start of the war, he struck vast quantities of counterfeit Polish coins which soon drove good money from circulation and caused rampant inflation. Prussian military purchasers could thus easily afford to raise their prices for forage and other supplies to initially grateful Polish landowners. The profits of this mass fraud contributed mightily to the survival of the Prussian state.”
