Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 4 Thalers coin from the State of Brandenburg-Prussia is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The coin was issued in 1628, just a few years after the Thirty Years' War had devastated much of Germany, including the Brandenburg-Prussia region. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin's minting was a testament to the region's resilience and determination to rebuild and prosper.
