Interesting fact
The ½ Thaler coin from the Principality of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort, minted in 1789 during the reign of Constantine, features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the initials "C" and "W" on either side, representing the names of the ruling princes, Constantine and Wilhelm. This coin was minted during a time of great change in Europe, as the Holy Roman Empire was dissolved and the German States were formed.
