Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the County of Mansfeld-Bornstedt is that it features a unique combination of two rulers, Wolfgang III and John George II, who jointly ruled the county from 1631 to 1638. This coin is a rare example of a coin that was issued during a period of co-rule, which was a common practice in some German states during the 17th century.
