Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Thalers - Frederick Francis I 1797 coin from Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (German States) is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Frederick Francis I, who was the Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin from 1785 until his death in 1842. During his reign, the duchy faced significant economic challenges, including inflation and debt, which led to the introduction of new currency reforms. The 2 Thalers coin was one of the coins introduced during this time, and it was made of gold (.875) and weighed 3.12 grams. Despite the challenges faced during its minting, the coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item today.
