Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe. The Principality of Anhalt-Bernburg was a small state located in what is now the state of Saxony-Anhalt in Germany, and it was one of many German states that were undergoing significant political and economic changes in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The coin's minting in 1799, during the reign of Alexius Frederick Christian, was likely a response to the economic and political pressures of the time, and it is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the people of Anhalt-Bernburg during this period.
