Minted during the Seven Years' Warunedited with "REICHS"
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the Seven Years' War (1756-1763), which was a major conflict between the great powers of Europe, including Prussia, Austria, France, and Russia. The Principality of Anhalt-Bernburg, where the coin was minted, was a small state located in what is now the state of Saxony-Anhalt in Germany. Despite its small size, the principality played a significant role in the war, providing troops and resources to the Prussian army. The coin itself is a testament to the economic and political significance of the Principality of Anhalt-Bernburg during this time period.
