Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Grote coin from the Lordship of Jever is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "A" and "G" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for Anthony Günther, the ruler of the Lordship of Jever at the time the coin was minted. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
