Interesting fact

The ½ Thaler coin from the Principality of Dannenberg, minted during the reign of Julius Ernest (1624-1625), features an unusual design element - a small image of a horse on the reverse side of the coin. This horse symbolizes the importance of horse breeding and trading in the region during that time period.
