Interesting fact

The Pattern 4 Grote coin from the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg, minted in 1816 and made of silver, weighing 2g, is a rare and valuable collector's item. It is interesting to note that the coin was minted during a time of great change in Europe, with the Congress of Vienna taking place in the same year, which aimed to redefine the political landscape of the continent after the Napoleonic Wars. The coin's design, featuring an image of Grand Duke Peter Frederick Louis, is a testament to the artistic and cultural achievements of the time.
