Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change in Germany. The Kingdom of Württemberg was one of the many German states that existed before Germany was unified in 1871.

Despite these challenges, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the craftsmanship of the time.
