Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique double portrait of its rulers, Christof Frederick and Jost Christian, on opposite sides of the coin. This distinctive design was a deliberate choice made by the mint master, Ausbeute, and it sets the coin apart from other coins of the time.
