Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe. Frederick V of Denmark, who is featured on the coin, was a prominent figure in the German States and his reign (1749-1766) saw significant political and economic shifts, including the Seven Years' War and the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a testament to the enduring legacy of the German States and their rich history of coinage.
