Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ⅙ Thaler coin from the Duchy of Württemberg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the House of Württemberg, which was a powerful noble family that ruled the region for centuries. This shield is placed above the year of minting, 1623-1624, and is a distinctive feature that sets this coin apart from other coins of the time.
