Interesting fact

The ½ Thaler coin from the Swedish dominion of Pomerania, minted during the reign of Christina (1642-1646), is interesting because it was made of silver, a valuable and durable metal that was widely used in coinage during that time. The fact that it weighs 13.99g suggests that it was a significant coin with a high value, and its design may have included intricate details or symbols that represented the Swedish monarchy and the region of Pomerania. Additionally, the fact that it was minted during a specific time period and bears the name of a historical figure adds to its historical significance and collectibility.
