Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Thalers - William 1850 coin from the Duchy of Brunswick (German States) is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued in 1850, just a few years before the formation of the North German Confederation in 1867, which marked the beginning of a unified German state. The coin's mintage was also a time of transition from the use of silver as the primary metal for coinage to the use of gold, which was seen as a more valuable and stable metal. The 10 Thalers coin, made of .900 gold and weighing 13.22 grams, was a significant denomination at the time and reflected the growing economic importance of the German states.
