Comment
Mintmaster I·H·M - Johan Henrik MadelungInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe, particularly in the German States. The coin was minted in 1762-1763, during the reign of Frederick V of Denmark, who was also the Duke of Holstein-Gottorp and the Count of Oldenburg. This was a time of great political and economic turmoil, with the Seven Years' War (1756-1763) taking place during this period, which had a significant impact on the German States and the rest of Europe. Despite this, the coin still maintains its value and historical significance, making it a fascinating piece for collectors and historians alike.
