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 during the reign of Charles XI of Sweden, who ruled from 1674 to 1675, and it was part of a larger effort to standardize coinage across the Swedish empire. This coin was made of silver and weighed 9.4 grams, making it a significant denomination at the time. Despite its age, the coin remains a popular collector's item today, with many examples still in circulation among numismatists.
