Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany. The Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel was one of the many German states that were affected by the Napoleonic Wars, and the coinage of the time reflects the economic instability of the period. Despite the challenges, the 10 Thalers coin remained a popular denomination and was widely used in trade and commerce.
