Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅓ Thaler coin from the Swedish dominion of Pomerania is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The coin was issued by Charles XI of Sweden in 1672-1673, a period when the Swedish Empire was expanding its territories and trade routes, and the coinage was an important tool for facilitating commerce and trade. The use of silver in the coin's minting also signifies the value placed on this precious metal during that time.
