Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ⅙ Thaler coin from the Kingdom of Prussia is that it was minted during a time of significant economic and political change in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1865, just a few years before the formation of the North German Confederation in 1867, which was a precursor to the modern German state. The coin's mintage was also a reflection of the growing economic power of Prussia during this period, as the country experienced rapid industrialization and urbanization.
