Comment
Minted in MeinsdorfInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Groschen - Rudolph 1621 from Anhalt-Zerbst (German States) coin 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 to signify that it was made of pure silver, as silver was a valuable and highly sought-after metal at the time. The hole also served as a way to distinguish the coin from counterfeit versions that were made of cheaper metals.
