Interesting fact

The 1/12 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Brunswick (German States) made of Silver weighing 2.5g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of George IV (1816-1819) and features an image of the duke on one side and the coat of arms of Brunswick on the other. It was a standard circulation coin during that time and is now a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
