Interesting fact

The 1751 August Louis 1/24 Thaler from Anhalt-Köthen (German States) is a rare and valuable coin, with only a few known examples remaining in existence. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe, with the Seven Years' War (1756-1763) taking place just a few years after its minting. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remains a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the mint masters of Anhalt-Köthen.
