Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1½ Thaler coin featuring Frederick IV (Death) from the Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp is that it was minted in 1702, during a time of great turmoil in Europe. The coin's obverse features an image of Frederick IV, who was the Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp from 1695 until his death in 1702. The reverse of the coin features an image of a crowned eagle, which symbolizes the power and authority of the duchy. Despite being minted over 300 years ago, this coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
