Interesting fact

The ⅔ Thaler coin was used as a means of payment in the Swedish dominion of Pomerania, which is now part of Germany. It was made of silver and had a unique design, featuring the image of King Charles XI on one side and the coat of arms of Pomerania on the other. The coin was minted between 1692 and 1697, during the reign of King Charles XI, and was used for everyday transactions, such as buying goods and services. Despite its age, some of these coins are still in circulation among collectors today, making them a valuable piece of history.
