Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique motto on its obverse side, which reads "FREDERICUS III DEI GRATIA" (Frederick III, by the grace of God). This motto was only used on a select few coins during Frederick III's reign, making it a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
