Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in Europe, particularly in the German States. The coin was minted in 1768, just a few years before the French Revolution, which had a significant impact on the political landscape of Europe. Additionally, the coin was minted during the Enlightenment, a time of great intellectual and cultural advancements, which is reflected in the coin's design, featuring the profiles of Charles Louis and Henry Christian Frederick, the ruling princes of the County of Stolberg-Stolberg and County of Stolberg-Rossla.
