Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Hamelin (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.82g has an interesting fact that it was minted during a time when the city was experiencing significant economic growth and prosperity, particularly in the textile industry. This coin was used as a means of exchange and store of value during this period, and its production was overseen by the city's mint, which was established in 1666.
