Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 50th anniversary of George William's reign as the Prince of Schaumburg-Lippe, a small principality in what is now Germany. The coin's design features an image of George William on one side and the coat of arms of Schaumburg-Lippe on the other. The use of silver and the relatively high weight of 37.037 grams make it a notable and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
