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 change in the region. The coin was introduced in 1674, just a few years after the Swedish Empire had taken control of Pomerania from the Holy Roman Empire. The new rulers implemented a number of economic reforms, including the introduction of a new currency system, which helped to stimulate trade and commerce in the region. The ⅓ Thaler coin was a key part of this system, and it remained in circulation for many years, becoming a popular and widely-used coin throughout the region.
