Comment
Mintmaster - Andreas FrickeInteresting fact
The ¼ Thaler coin from the City of Hildesheim (German States) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thaler was a widely used currency at the time, and the fact that this coin was minted in Hildesheim suggests that the city was an important economic center in the region. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's minting indicates that it was a valuable and sought-after commodity at the time.
