Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the Peace of Hubertusburg, which was a treaty signed in 1763 that ended the Seven Years' War. The coin's design features an image of Henry XXX, the reigning prince of Reuss-Gera at the time, on one side, and an image of the treaty being signed on the other. This coin is a rare and valuable example of a commemorative coin from the German States, and its silver content and weight make it a notable piece for collectors.
