Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1/24 Thaler coin from the State of Brandenburg-Prussia is that it was minted during a time of significant economic and political change in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of Frederick William, who was the Elector of Brandenburg and Duke of Prussia from 1668 to 1675. During his reign, Frederick William implemented a number of economic reforms, including the introduction of a new coinage system, which helped to stabilize the economy and increase trade in the region. The 1/24 Thaler coin was part of this new system and was used widely in the German States.
