Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 24 Grote - Anthony Günther 1658-1660 from Lordship of Jever (German States) made of Silver weighing 11.15 g is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Second Northern War (1655-1660). This conflict involved many European powers, including Sweden, Poland, and the Holy Roman Empire, and it had a significant impact on the political and economic landscape of the region. Despite this, the coin still maintains its value and historical significance, serving as a reminder of the complex history of Europe during this time period.
