Interesting fact

The ½ Thaler coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg, minted in 1760, is interesting because it was part of a currency union between several German states, known as the "Konventionstaler" system. This system was established in 1753 and aimed to standardize the currency used in the various German states, making trade and commerce easier and more efficient. The ½ Thaler coin was one of the denominations introduced by this system, and it was widely used throughout the German states until the early 19th century.
