Comment
Coin has a slight bend from being roller milled.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅙ Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "C.S." (Civitas Suevorum) on the reverse side, which represents the city of Ansbach and its association with the Swabian League.
