Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ⅔ Thaler coin from Anhalt-Dessau is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "A" in the center, which represents the coat of arms of the House of Ascania, the ruling dynasty of Anhalt-Dessau at the time. This shield is surrounded by a wreath of leaves and berries, adding to the coin's intricate and beautiful design.
