Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Reichsguldiner coin from Brandenburg-Franconia is that it features a unique combination of two rulers on its obverse side. The coin bears the portraits of both Casimir and George, who were co-rulers of the region in 1525. This dual portrait design was a rare feature in coins of that time period, making it a distinctive and interesting aspect of this particular coin.
