Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe, particularly in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin was minted in 1689, just a few years before the start of the War of the Spanish Succession, which lasted from 1701 to 1714 and involved many European powers, including the Holy Roman Empire. Additionally, the coin was minted during the reign of Gustav Adolph, who was the Duke of Mecklenburg-Güstrow from 1689 until his death in 1692. This was a time of significant political and economic change in the region, and the coin reflects the cultural and historical context in which it was minted.
