Comment
Mintmaster CP - Christoph PflugInteresting fact
The ⅔ Thaler coin from Magdeburg was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the German States. The coin was issued in the late 17th century, a period marked by the Thirty Years' War, which had a profound impact on the region's economy and trade. Despite these challenges, the City of Magdeburg continued to mint coins, such as the ⅔ Thaler, which were used for everyday transactions and commerce. This coin is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people of Magdeburg during a time of great upheaval.
