Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅔ Thaler coin from the Swedish dominion of Pomerania is that it was minted during the reign of Charles XII, who was the king of Sweden from 1697 to 1718. Charles XII was known for his military conquests and expansion of the Swedish Empire, which included the acquisition of Pomerania in 1706. The coin was minted in 1706-1707, which was a time of great change and upheaval in Europe, with the Great Northern War being fought between Sweden and a coalition of Russia, Denmark-Norway, and Saxony. Despite the turmoil, the coin remains a testament to the economic and cultural achievements of the Swedish Empire during this period.
