Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅙ Thaler coin from the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel is that it features an image of Charles I, the ruling Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, on one side, and a depiction of the Wolfenbüttel coat of arms on the other. The coat of arms includes a wolf, which is where the name "Wolfenbüttel" originates.
