Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Mark Danske - Frederik III 1665-1668 coin from Denmark is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally added to the coin's design to signify the value of the coin and to make it easier to stack and store. This feature is not commonly found in coins from other countries or time periods, making it a distinctive characteristic of this particular coin.
