Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of two different designs on its obverse and reverse sides. The obverse features a portrait of Charles William Frederick, the Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach, while the reverse features an image of a mule, which is a symbol of the Augsburg Confession, a significant event in the history of the Protestant Reformation. This combination of designs makes the coin particularly noteworthy and valuable to collectors.
