Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, known as the Thirty Years War (1618-1648). Despite the conflict, the Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp was able to maintain its independence and continue minting its own coins, such as this 1⁄192 Thaler.
