Interesting fact
The 6 Pfennigs coin from the Principality of Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt, issued during the reign of Frederick Günther (1812-1813), features an interesting design element - a stylized "F" mintmark on the reverse side, which represents the mint location of Rudolstadt. This mintmark was used specifically for coins produced at the Rudolstadt mint and is a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
