Comment
Schmidt und Knab 595Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Henry XXIV, who was a member of the House of Reuss, a noble family that ruled the County of Reuss-Ebersdorf in the German States. The coin's design features an image of Henry XXIV on one side and the Reuss-Ebersdorf coat of arms on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a common practice during this time period, as it was a valuable and durable metal that was widely used in coinage.
