Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Thalers coin from the Swedish dominion of Pomerania is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe. The coin was minted in 1655-1657, which was during the Second Northern War, a conflict between Sweden and Poland-Lithuania that lasted from 1655 to 1660. Despite the war, the coin still features the image of Charles X Gustav, the King of Sweden, indicating the coin's connection to the Swedish monarchy.
