Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1/48 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Mecklenburg-Güstrow is that it features an image of Gustav Adolphus, the Duke of Mecklenburg-Güstrow, on one side, and a depiction of the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. This coin was minted during Gustav Adolphus' reign from 1671 to 1694 and was used as a standard circulation coin in the German States. The use of silver in the coin's minting process adds to its historical significance and value as a collector's item.
