Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ½ Thaler coin from the Duchy of Krummau (Kingdom of Bohemia) is that it features a unique combination of religious and secular symbols. On one side, the coin bears an image of the Virgin Mary and the Christ child, while on the other side, it features the coat of arms of the ruling family, the House of Eggenberg. This blending of religious and secular imagery reflects the complex political and religious landscape of Europe during the 17th century.
