Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the death of Christian Ulrich von Bernstadt, a prominent nobleman from the Duchy of Württemberg-Oels in Silesia. The coin's design features an image of von Bernstadt on the obverse, while the reverse bears the coat of arms of the Duchy of Württemberg-Oels. The use of gold in the coin's composition and its relatively small weight of 3.44 grams also make it a notable piece in the history of numismatics.
