Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles I, who was known for his efforts to modernize the economy and infrastructure of the principality. The coin's design, which features an image of Charles I on one side and the coat of arms of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel on the other, reflects the importance of the ruling family and the state's identity during this time. Additionally, the fact that the coin was made of silver and weighed 29.05 grams suggests that it was a significant denomination and was likely used for large transactions or as a store of value.
