Interesting fact
The ⅙ Thaler coin from the County of Montfort-Peggau (German States) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Maximilian Joseph Ernest, who was a member of the House of Wittelsbach and ruled the county from 1758 to 1785. This coin is a rare example of a silver coin minted during this time period, as most coins of this denomination were made of copper or other base metals. Additionally, the coin features an intricate design, including an image of Maximilian Joseph Ernest on one side and the Montfort-Peggau coat of arms on the other.
