Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ¼ Thaler coin from the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "H" in the center, which represents the initial of the ruler, Henry Julius. This distinctive feature sets it apart from other coins of the time and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
