Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1/16 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp is that it features an image of Christian Albert, the ruling duke at the time, on one side, and a depiction of the Gottorp coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region, and its design reflects the importance of the duchy's ruling family and their efforts to promote trade and commerce.
