Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Isny (German States) made of Silver weighing 30.89g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the reign of Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, who was also the King of Spain and Archduke of Austria. This coin was issued as a standard circulation coin in the German States during his rule, and it features an image of the Emperor on one side and the coat of arms of the City of Isny on the other. This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists today, given its historical significance and the fact that it has been well-preserved over the centuries.
