Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Hamelin (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.74g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the reign of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, who was also the King of Spain and the Archduke of Austria. This coin was issued as a standard circulation coin in the German States during his rule, and it features an image of the emperor on one side and the Hamelin coat of arms on the other. This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists today, given its historical significance and the fact that it has been well-preserved over the centuries.
