Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1612 Adolphus Frederick I 1/64 Thaler from Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (German States) is that it features an error in the inscription. The coin was minted with the Latin phrase "A.F.D.G. DUX MECKLENBURG" which is a abbreviation for "Adolphus Frederick, Duke of Mecklenburg." However, the coin mistakenly includes an extra letter "G" at the end of the phrase, making it a unique and rare variation among collectors.
