Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Thalers - Christian I Louis 1681 coin from Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (German States) is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally drilled into the coin as a way to test its authenticity, as counterfeiters at the time were known to produce coins with a solid center. The presence of the hole in the center of the coin served as a way to verify its legitimacy and value.
