Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Rudolph August, who was the Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel from 1666 until his death in 1704. He was known for his extensive collection of coins and medals, and this coin is one of the few that still exists today as a testament to his passion for numismatics.
