Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Dortmund (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.78g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the reign of Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian II, who was a member of the House of Habsburg and ruled from 1564 to 1576. This coin was issued during a time of great change in Europe, with the Protestant Reformation and the rise of nation-states, and it reflects the political and economic shifts of that era.
