Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅓ Thaler coin from Brunswick-Lüneburg-Calenberg-Hannover is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1804, just a few years before the Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on the German states and their currency. The coin's silver content and its connection to the German states make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in European history.
