Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Principality of Reuss-Lobenstein was a small state within the German Confederation, and the coinage of this period reflects the economic and political shifts that were taking place in the region. The use of billon, a silver-copper alloy, was a common practice during this time as it allowed for the production of coins with a lower silver content, making them more affordable for everyday transactions. Additionally, the coin's design, featuring Henry XXXV, highlights the importance of the ruling family and their influence on the region's economy and politics.
