Interesting fact
The 1/24 Thaler coin from the State of Brandenburg-Prussia, minted in 1675 during the reign of Frederick William, was made of silver and features an interesting design element - a crowned eagle on the obverse (front) side of the coin. This design was a symbol of the Holy Roman Empire, which Brandenburg-Prussia was a part of at the time. The eagle is depicted holding a scepter and an orb, which represent the power and authority of the Holy Roman Emperor. This design was used on many coins during this period and is a distinctive feature of the 1/24 Thaler coin.
