Interesting fact

The ½ Thaler coin from the County of Hohenlohe-Kirchberg, minted in 1786 during the reign of Christian Frederick Charles, features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the coat of arms of the Hohenlohe-Kirchberg family on one side, and the reverse side shows the value of the coin, "1/2 Thaler", surrounded by a wreath of leaves. This design was a common feature of coins minted during this period in the German States, and it symbolized the connection between the ruling family and the coin's value.
