Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Erfurt was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thaler was a widely used denomination in the German States, and the Erfurt mint was one of the most prominent mints in the region. The coin's design features the coat of arms of the City of Erfurt on one side and the image of a lion on the other, symbolizing the city's power and influence. Despite its age, the coin remains a popular collector's item among numismatists today, with some rare examples selling for thousands of dollars at auction.
