Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Brunswick (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.72g has an interesting fact that it was minted during a time of great economic change in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of Duke Julius of Brunswick-Lüneburg, who was known for his efforts to reform the economy and promote trade in the region. The coin's design, which features the Duke's portrait on one side and the Brunswick coat of arms on the other, reflects the political and economic changes that were taking place at the time.
