Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The County of Holstein-Schaumburg-Pinneberg was a small state in the Holy Roman Empire, and the minting of this coin coincided with the Thirty Years' War, which had a significant impact on the local economy and trade. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a valuable piece of numismatic history, providing a glimpse into the economic and political conditions of the time.
