Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Rostock (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.6g was minted during a time when the city was an important member of the Hanseatic League, a powerful trading confederation in Northern Europe. The coin's design likely reflects the city's economic and cultural ties to the League, and its use of silver suggests a high level of craftsmanship and value.
