Mintmaster - Johann Georg Breyer

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ⅔ Thaler coin from Archbishopric of Magdeburg (German States) made of Silver is that it features an image of August of Sachsen-Weissenfels, who was the ruling duke at the time, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Archbishopric of Magdeburg on the other. This coin was minted in 1675 and was used as a standard circulation coin in the German States during that time.
