Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1622 Principality of Anhalt silver Dreier coin is that it features a unique combination of five different rulers on its obverse side. The coin was issued during a time of political turmoil in the region, and the inclusion of multiple rulers on the coin may have been a way to symbolize unity and stability in the face of external threats. This coin is a rare and valuable example of early modern numismatics and represents an important part of European history.
