Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler 1622 from City of Worms (German States) made of Silver features an image of a large, crowned eagle on the obverse (front) side, which symbolizes the power and authority of the Holy Roman Empire. The reverse (back) side of the coin depicts the coat of arms of the City of Worms, which includes a stylized image of a worm, representing the city's name and history. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, and its design reflects the influences of the Renaissance and the Protestant Reformation.
