Comment
There is an error know where the inscription on the edge reads MUNZVFRTRAG (see Teutoburger Auction 57 Lot 2270)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The Landgraviate of Hessen-Homburg was one of the smaller German states, and the issuance of this coin was likely an attempt to standardize currency and facilitate trade within the region. The use of silver in the coin's composition was also a common practice during this time period, as it was a valued and widely accepted metal for currency.
