Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 4 Schilling - Frederick IV 1696-1698 from Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp (German States) made of Silver is that it features an error in the inscription on the reverse side. The Latin inscription "FREDERICUS IV D G DUX SLESvicensis" contains a typo, with the letter "s" in "SLESvicensis" being replaced by a letter "l". This error was likely caused by a mistake in the engraving process and has become a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
