Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅔ Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally drilled into the coin to signify its authenticity and value. This feature was a common practice in the German States during that time period, and it added an extra layer of security against counterfeiting.
