Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ⅛ Ducat coin from County of Stolberg-Rossla is that it was minted during the reign of Justus Christian I, who was the Count of Stolberg-Rossla from 1706 until his death in 1739. During his rule, he promoted the development of the local economy and infrastructure, and the minting of this coin was likely a part of those efforts.
