Interesting fact

The 1 Schilling coin from the Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp, minted between 1708 and 1710 during the reign of Charles Frederick, features an error in the inscription on the reverse side. The Latin phrase "Fürstl. Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorpsche Münze" (Princely Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp Coin) was mistakenly misspelled as "Fürstl. Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorpsche Müntze" (Princely Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp Mint). This error has become a distinctive feature of the coin and is highly sought after by collectors.
