Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 6 Grote - Peter Frederick Louis 1816-1818 from Grand duchy of Oldenburg (German States) made of Billon (.340 silver) weighing 3.58 g is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The Grand Duchy of Oldenburg was one of the German states that was affected by the Napoleonic Wars and the subsequent Congress of Vienna, which led to the reorganization of the German states and the introduction of new currency systems. The coin's design, featuring an image of Peter Frederick Louis, the Grand Duke of Oldenburg, and the inscription "GROSHERZOGTHUM OLDBURG" (Grand Duchy of Oldenburg) on the obverse, and the denomination "6 GROTE" (6 large) on the reverse, reflects the political and economic changes that were taking place in Germany during this time.
