Interesting fact
The 16 Gute Groschen coin from the Kingdom of Hannover, minted in 1821 during the reign of George IV, features an interesting error. The coin was minted with a misprinted date, showing the year as "1821" instead of "1820." This error has made the coin a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
