Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 8 Gute Groschen coin from the Principality of Anhalt is that it features five different rulers on its obverse side, which is unusual for a coin. The five rulers depicted are John George II, Victor Amadeus, William, Charles William, and Emanuel Lebrecht, who were all members of the House of Ascania, which ruled the Principality of Anhalt from 1305 to 1793. This coin was minted in 1669 and made of silver, which was a common material for coins at that time.
