Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features four different rulers: Woldemar VI, Ernest, Rudolph, and George II. This is unusual because coins typically feature only one ruler, and it suggests that this coin was issued during a time of political complexity or transition in the Principality of Anhalt.
