Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Germany. The Principality of Waldeck-Pyrmont was a small state located in what is now the state of Hesse, and it was one of many German states that were unified under the German Empire in 1871. The coin's mintage period, 1859-1867, was a time of political and economic turmoil, as Germany was undergoing rapid industrialization and political unification. Despite these changes, the coin remained a standard circulation coin throughout its mintage period, and it remains a valuable collector's item to this day.
