Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Schilling - Charles Frederick 1710-1712 from Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp (German States) made of Silver is that it features an image of Charles Frederick, the ruling duke at the time, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region, and its design reflects the influences of the surrounding European powers. Despite being made of silver, this coin was not widely used in international trade due to its relatively low value, but it remained an important part of local commerce in the German States.
