Interesting fact

The ½ Schilling coin from Öttingen (German States) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during a time of great religious and political upheaval in Europe, particularly in Germany during the early 16th century. The coin features the images of Wolfgang and Joachim, who were influential leaders of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
