Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅔ Thaler - Sede Vacante 1761 from Bishopric of Hildesheim (German States) coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and religious upheaval in Europe. The coin was issued in 1761, just a few years before the start of the Seven Years' War, which would go on to have a profound impact on the political landscape of Europe and the world. Additionally, the coin was minted during a period of religious turmoil, as the Catholic Church was facing challenges from Protestantism and other religious movements. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a testament to the enduring power and influence of the Catholic Church during this time period.
