Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of five different names on its obverse side: John Francis, Henry, William Moritz, Henry Casimir, and Francis Alexander. This is unusual because typically, coins only feature the name of a single ruler or leader. The fact that this coin includes multiple names suggests that it may have been issued during a time of political unity or cooperation between these individuals or their respective territories.
