Interesting fact

The 1⁄28 Thaler coin from the County of Stolberg (German States) made of Silver is interesting because it features a unique combination of two rulers, Henry XXII and Wolfgang George, on the same coin. This is a rare example of a coin that was issued during a time when it was common for coins to feature only one ruler or a single family. The fact that it was made of silver also adds to its value and historical significance.
