Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Germany. The 1796 ⅓ Thaler coin was issued during the reign of Charles Louis and Henry Christian Frederick, who were the ruling princes of the County of Stolberg-Stolberg and County of Stolberg-Rossla, respectively. This was a period of significant upheaval in Europe, with the French Revolution and the subsequent Napoleonic Wars causing widespread disruption and change. Despite these challenges, the minting of this coin suggests that the Stolberg-Stolberg and Stolberg-Rossla territories were able to maintain some level of economic stability and continuity during this time.
