Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change in Germany. The Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, where the coin was minted, was one of the many German states that were unified under the German Empire in 1871, just a few years after this coin was minted. This coin is a piece of history that represents a unique time in German history, before the country was unified and became the powerful nation it is today.
