Interesting fact
The 1/16 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Mecklenburg-Güstrow, minted in 1678 during the reign of Gustav Adolphus, features an interesting design element - a stylized portrait of the duke, surrounded by an elaborate wreath. This wreath is said to symbolize the duchy's connection to the Holy Roman Empire, of which it was a part.
