Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of three different rulers on its obverse side. Volrat VI, Wolfgang III, and John George II are all depicted together, which is a rare occurrence on coins from this time period. This coin is a rare and valuable example of early 17th-century German numismatics.
