Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Mecklenburg-Güstrow, issued in 1622 during the reign of John Albert II, features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the coat of arms of the House of Mecklenburg, surrounded by the motto "AVSPICE DEI" (Latin for "Under the guidance of God"). This motto was commonly used by the Mecklenburg dynasty and symbolized their belief in divine guidance and protection.
