Interesting fact
The ⅔ Thaler coin was minted during the brief reign of Jérôme Bonaparte, who was the youngest brother of Napoleon Bonaparte and the King of Westphalia from 1807 to 1813. The coin's design features Jérôme's profile on one side and the Westphalian coat of arms on the other. It's interesting to note that Jérôme's rule was marked by controversy and conflict, and his kingdom was eventually annexed by Prussia in 1813. Despite this, the ⅔ Thaler coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
