Interesting fact
The 1½ Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Cammin (German States) features an image of Ulrich, also known as Ulrich von Pommern, who was the last bishop of the Bishopric of Cammin. He died in 1622, and the coin was minted to commemorate his death. The coin's design includes an image of Ulrich in a bishop's robe, with a skull and crossbones at his feet, symbolizing death. This coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists due to its historical significance and limited mintage.
