Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1747 Adolphus Frederick III 1/24 Thaler from Duchy of Mecklenburg-Strelitz is that it features an image of the duke himself on one side, while the reverse side depicts the Mecklenburg coat of arms, which includes a griffin and a shield with the motto "Fortuna Favet" (Fortune Favors). This coin was minted during a time of great change in Europe, as the Holy Roman Empire was dissolving and many German states were becoming more independent. The coin's silver content and intricate design make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
