There is an other type with cenal griffin to left (KM#337)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1/12 Thaler coin from the Swedish dominion of Pomerania is that it was minted during a time of great change and conflict in the region. The coin was minted during the reign of Charles XI of Sweden, who ruled from 1689 to 1693. During this time, the Swedish Empire was engaged in a series of wars, including the Great Northern War, which lasted from 1700 to 1721. Despite the turmoil of this period, the coin remains a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the region.
