Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Mariengroschen coin from the County of Regenstein is that it features a unique combination of three different coats of arms on its reverse side. The coats of arms belong to the three ruling families of the county: the House of Regenstein, the House of Botho, and the House of Caspar Ulrich. This design was used to symbolize the unity and cooperation between the three families, who ruled the county together in the 16th century.
