Interesting fact
The ¼ Thaler coin from the Duchy of Mecklenburg-Güstrow, minted in 1622 during the reign of John Albert II, features an interesting design element - a stylized image of a griffin, a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. This symbol was used to represent the coat of arms of the Duchy and can be seen on the reverse side of the coin.
