Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element known as the "Regenbogen" or "rainbow" effect, which is a result of the way the silver content was mixed with other metals during the minting process. This creates a beautiful, iridescent sheen on the coin's surface that is highly prized by collectors.
