Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1754 Kingdom of Prussia 1/24 Thaler coin is that it features a unique "mule" design, with the obverse (front) side bearing the image of Frederick II, while the reverse (back) side features the coat of arms of the German States. This unusual design was the result of a mistake made by the mint, where the wrong dies were used to strike the coin, creating a rare and highly sought-after variation among collectors.
