Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from Anhalt-Zerbst is that it features an image of Charles William, the ruler of the principality, on one side, and an image of the coat of arms of Anhalt-Zerbst on the other. This coin was minted during Charles William's reign, which lasted from 1667 to 1718, and was used as a standard circulation coin in the German States. The fact that it was made of silver and weighs 28.62 grams adds to its historical significance and value as a collector's item.
