Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the death of Luise Henriette, the wife of Frederick William, the Great Elector of Brandenburg. She died in 1667, and the coin was issued the same year as a tribute to her memory. The coin's design features an image of Luise Henriette on one side and an image of Frederick William on the other, surrounded by an ornate border and inscriptions. The coin's silver content and intricate design make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists and historians.
