Interesting fact
The 1⁄16 Thaler coin from the City of Brunswick (German States) made of Silver weighing 1.78 g is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in the late 17th century, a period marked by the transition from feudalism to capitalism and the rise of modern nation-states. The coin's design and minting process were likely influenced by these changes, making it a unique and fascinating artifact of its time.
