Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Thaler 1605-1609 from Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.55g is that it features a unique design that reflects the city's rich history and culture. The obverse side of the coin depicts the city's coat of arms, which includes a shield with a hanseatic cross, a symbol of the city's membership in the Hanseatic League, a powerful trading confederation in Northern Europe during the Middle Ages. The reverse side of the coin features a image of Saint Peter, the patron saint of Lübeck, holding a key and a book, symbolizing the city's strong religious heritage. The coin's design serves as a reminder of Lübeck's rich history and cultural heritage, and its significance as a major trading center in Northern Europe during the 17th century.
