Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The Duchy of Brunswick, where the coin was minted, was one of the many German states that existed before the unification of Germany in 1871. The coin's mintage was a result of the need for a standardized currency across the German states, and it was used widely in trade and commerce during that time.
