Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The Vereinsthaler was introduced as a standardized currency across the German states in 1857, and this coin was minted just a few years later in 1861-1862. The coin's design features Alexander Charles, the ruling Duke of Anhalt-Bernburg at the time, and its silver content and weight were carefully regulated to ensure consistency with other coins in circulation. This coin is a tangible piece of history that reflects the economic and political shifts occurring in Germany during the mid-19th century.
