Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler 1622 from County of Stolberg (German States) made of Silver features an image of Count Christian Ernst of Stolberg on one side and the coat of arms of the County of Stolberg on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, and its design reflects the influences of the Renaissance and the Protestant Reformation. The use of silver in the coin's minting also speaks to the region's rich mining history and the value placed on precious metals at the time.
