Interesting fact
The Augsburg ⅑ Thaler coin from 1623-1625 is interesting because it was issued during a time of great economic and political change in the German States. The coin was minted during the Thirty Years War, a conflict that lasted from 1618 to 1648 and involved many European powers. Despite the turmoil of this period, the Augsburg ⅑ Thaler coin remained a stable and widely accepted form of currency, reflecting the economic and political importance of the Free City of Augsburg during this time.
