Interesting fact

The ⅓ Thaler coin was minted during the reign of Frederick III, who was the first king of Prussia and ruled from 1694 to 1700. The coin was made of silver and was a standard circulation coin during that time. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Frederick III on one side and the coat of arms of Brandenburg-Prussia on the other. This coin was an important part of the currency system in the German States during the late 17th and early 18th centuries, and it is still sought after by collectors today.
