Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 4 Mark - Charles XI 1668 from Duchy under Swedish possession of Bremen-Verden (German States) made of Silver weighing 22.13 g is that it was minted during a time of great change and conflict in Europe. The coin was minted in 1668, which was during the Second Northern War, a conflict between Sweden and Denmark-Norway that lasted from 1655 to 1660. Additionally, the coin was minted during the reign of Charles XI of Sweden, who was known for his military campaigns and his efforts to strengthen the Swedish economy. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the craftsmanship of the minting process during that era.
