Interesting fact

The 1 Dreier coin from the City of Hannover (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.71 g is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just begun, and the Holy Roman Empire was in the process of being dissolved. The coin's design and minting process were likely influenced by these events, making it a unique piece of history.
