Interesting fact
The 1 Speciedaler coin was used as a means of payment in Denmark during the 17th century, and it was made of silver with a purity level of .875, which means it contained 87.5% silver and 12.5% other metals. The coin weighed 28.65 grams and had a diameter of 38-40 millimeters. It was minted during the reign of King Frederik III, who ruled Denmark from 1648 to 1670.
