Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Conventionsthaler coin from the Duchy of Anhalt-Bernburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "AFC" (for Alexius Frederick Christian) located above the crown on the obverse side of the coin. This subtle detail adds an extra layer of historical significance to the coin and serves as a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail of the mint masters who created it.
