Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Stade (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.84g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648), a conflict that devastated much of Europe and had significant impacts on the economy and currency systems of the time. Despite the challenges, the coin still maintains its value and historical significance, making it a unique piece for collectors and historians.
