Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Reichsort coin from the Duchy of Mecklenburg-Güstrow is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Duchy on the reverse side, which was not commonly seen on other coins of the time. This adds a touch of regional pride and identity to the coin, making it stand out among other coins of the German States.
