Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). Despite the conflict, the coin's design and production were still able to be completed, which is a testament to the resilience and determination of the people involved in its creation.
