Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Free Imperial City of Frankfurt (German States) is that it features an image of the city's patron saint, St. Bartholomew, on one side, while the other side bears the coat of arms of the city. This coin was minted during a time when the city was an important center of trade and commerce, and the image of St. Bartholomew was meant to symbolize the city's connection to the Christian faith and its commitment to fair trade practices.
