Varieties existInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Thaler coin from the County of Stolberg (German States) is that it features a unique combination of five different rulers on its obverse side. The coin was issued during the reign of Wolfgang, Louis, Henry, Albert George, and Christoph, who were all members of the House of Stolberg, a noble family that ruled the county from the 12th to the 18th century. This coin is a rare example of a coin that features multiple rulers on a single coin, making it a fascinating piece of numismatic history.
