Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1⁄96 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp is that it features an image of Christian Albert, the ruling duke at the time, on one side, and an image of the Gottorp coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region, and its design reflects the importance of the duchy's ruling family and their efforts to promote trade and commerce.
