Comment
Bratring 6; Slg. Pogge 1442.Interesting fact
The 2 Thalers coin from the City of Stralsund (German States) made of Silver weighing 57.84g has an interesting fact that it was minted during a time when the city was an important trading center in the Baltic Sea region, and the coin's design reflects the city's rich history and culture. The obverse side of the coin features the image of a Griffin, which was a symbol of the city's power and strength, while the reverse side features the image of a shield with the city's coat of arms, surrounded by the inscription "STADT STRALSUND" (City of Stralsund). This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, highly sought after by numismatists and historians interested in the history of the region.
