Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the succession of Charles William Frederick, Count of Sayn-Altenkirchen, in 1741. The coin's design features an image of Charles William Frederick on one side and the coat of arms of the County of Sayn-Altenkirchen on the other. The use of gold for the coin's material and its relatively small weight of 6.93 grams make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists.
